Once upon a time there was this little boy
with sparkling eyes and a smile of joy
good and polite, his heart was open
still unbroken
A little shy and liked to play alone
yet still he'd try to please and be the clown
always prepared to entertain
in vain, earned disdain

"How I wish they would see me!"
The burning of shame...
"All their laughter just means
that they despise your face"
Still he would wear the smile
yet had not realized
the first time he lied
the light in his eyes had died

Broke his heart, hid the parts
all the marks were turned to battle-scars
He was driven by a growing need to be
stainless, flawless, perfect
The best of all, no thoughts to fall
replaced sympathy with irony
each day made himself a little harder, turning
lifeless, faithless, soulless

"My skin's made of iron, my veins flow with ice
Feel the coldness within me and all your love dies
It's just a lie anyway - No one cares who you are
Beneath the mask I can't remember my face anymore"

"I thought I had nothing left to lose
just empty roads from which to choose
a lonely void is the only truth
Until I met you...
I could not believe that you were true
I was so much in awe of you
just one night and I'd die for you
forgotten wish come true

No! God, don't take her away like so...
I don't want to let her go
losing her will leave me
messed up, fucked up, strung up"
"Fool! How could you be so dumb to fall?
She never cared for you at all
So show your face - you're just a
creeper, stalker, stranger"

"It felt like my soul was torn in two
That is why I wrote to you
I wonder could you feel it too?
I never wished to hurt you
You know everything I've told is true
'cause I would never lie to you
the three words that he taught you
can I ever tell you?

Oh, I know you are strong
you don't need anyone
You bear your name like a shield
pride is the sword that you wield
Yet the pain in your eyes
tells me that I know your disguise
Beneath the mask I've seen
how beautiful you are

I know now what I have to do
I wish that we could make it through
but you have your own choices too
there's nothing I can ask of you
I'll forgive no matter what you do
but please believe my heart is true
and know that I will wait for you
forever if I have to"
