All I Want

As another day draws to a close

I don't know how much longer I can keep up this pose

I feel as if my life is tumbling down

And no one knows because I refuse to make a sound

My smile can hide so much

I act as if I haven't been tainted by the devil's touch

But as each day goes by

I slowly lose my will to try

I want to let my secrets go

And finally let myself show

I wish this wasn't so much to ask for

But I want nothing more

Than to live free

But until then, I'll just hide behind the mask that I say is me
