Shun The Mask

Tear tears through my eye 
A screaming struggle 
To shin the shallow me 
The calculated "I" 
Penetrate the pretense 
Of this plastic life 
Hard? Yes it's hard 
(what did you expect?) 
easy life - easy lie 

Crackerjack smile is cracked 
I spy the lie decry the lie 
Jack tragic trace: 
Tear etching scars your caked 
On clown face 

I shun the mask 
I'll never put it back
