Money Masks
I am happy I am brightThey all think I'm all full of lightThey say that I'm oh so luckyto have a life surounded by moneybut they dont see broken familiescaused by my parents need to be wealthyI've seen them as perfect peoplethen reality really hits meAnd I see the war torn fieldIf only scars could truly healmabye I wouldn't be so lonleySuffocating dieing slowly"But your happy" they all say"And what makes you think that way?""Well you smile, and you laugh."And then I smile and put up my mask"Yeah I guess your right, I'm happy!""See you're fine now quit your crying"If only my mask would breakThey'd know my life ain't so greatBut for now I'll smile and laughBecause I know they want the mask
