Today is just another day,
Just like yesterday,
And will be like tomorrow.
Everyday is another mask,
A mask that hides my face.
Another facade,
Another game of charades.
Another face that lookes happy,
But that's just the mask,
Another day of hiding,
Another day of silent tears.
Just like the day before and tomorrow,
I put on a mask to hide,
To hide what I'm feeling.
Though I look happy,
That's not how I feel.
Silently crying,
But laughing and smiling with my friends.
Can they see my tears?
My tears from crying.
But they can't see them,
My tears are behind my mask,
My mask of joy to hide my pain and tears.
There are times when my mask disappears,
Rare chances when my friends can see behind my mask.
They ask, yet I tell them nothing,
They believe me, and I put back on my mask.

Today's jsut like yesterday,
Another facade,
Another mask.
I'm tired of it,
But I'm afraid,
Afraid that if I take off my mask,
My tears won't be silent anymore,
They won't stop and I'll be forever sad.

I'll continue with this facade,
But one day,
I'll be able to take off my mask.
But for now,
Today's just another day.
