Behind the eyes I see a fear,
Lost controled rite off the pier,
Porcillin face like a mask,
In thier world made from broken glass,

Underneath that painted smile,
Lies a lost and lonely child,
Cries the face behind the mask,
Watching the living slowly pass,

Outside living,beauty and freedom,
Inside thier eyes lost to thier own private prison,
Daggers stabbing behind the mask,
A tear runs down the porcillin face,

The cover is blown,
The world can see,
What the frightened child was trying to be,

Her porcillen face is pale and white,
All she can do is sit and write,in crimsonink thats stained her life!
