Try harder to contain
Your anger
Your pain
He doesn't need to see
Anything but you being happy.
I thought I was past all this
But all I'm starting to see
Is the looks
The words
The voice in my mind
Saying "try harder"
To put the mask back on.
Sometimes I get mad
It happens quick
I'm only human
But that's not what is supposed to be shown
I'm supposed to be always in control
It's not easy
I'll keep trying
For him
Maybe even for me.
