I painted a mask for you
All rosy and perfect
It wasn't me though
It was too beautiful
Too unbroken
Too perfect

And I hoped maybe you would unmask me
Look beneath
See that I wasn't beautiful
See that I was broken
See that I was imperfect
But you didn't love me
You loved the mask of the girl that I wished I could be
And so you didn't even try to help me take it off
And I couldn't blame you
