I’d Rather Be Broken
I’d rather be broken
Than to fake my way through
The mask I’ve been wearing
Has worn nearly in two
For a time it felt good
To keep myself hidden
But now I must question
“Who have I been kidding?”
Those who know the real me
Have seen through the charade
The only one I seemed destined to fool
Was the one casting the masquerade
As for the depth of pain and shame
There are no words to convey
But there’s something much worse
Acting like I’m okay
My heart was once bold and free
But that came with a cost
I long for a return to that reality
Even if it calls for another great loss
So here’s to shattering the mask
And being who I really am
Even if that isn’t pleasant
Its real, and all a part of His plan
