Should I undress slowly
Starting with my false smile
Peel it off and see how you react
Should I shrug off the pretence
Of feeling like the world is beautiful
And let the darkness cover the light
I have led you to believe is there
Should I open my heart
And let the sadness wrap around you
Tearing at your throat until you look at me
Wondering how you're going to breathe
When I am naked to my soul
And have nothing left to hide
Should I look away-lower my eyes
So I don't see the horror in yours
When you realise what ugly looks like
