[Intro]
I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time, no
Stare at the ceiling while I hold back what's on my mind
And when they ask me how I'm doing I say, "I'm just fine"
And when they ask me how I'm doing I say, "I'm just fine"
But the fact is
I can never get off of my mattress
And - and all that they can ask is
"Why are you so goddamn sad kid?"

[Chorus]
That's what the mask is
Oh goddamn - that's what the point of the mask is
So you can see I'm tryin'
Oh you see me go
I'll just keep on smilin'- I'm going up
So -

[Verse 1]
I'm okay-ish - yeah I'm okay
I've been many places - can't get it out my head
I've been judged by these faces - haven't gone outside
Don't know what to say - when you're on my mind

So long its real, so long I feel like I'm trapped
Behind this mask of mine
Can't see what is real - can't see what is fake
No, I try my damn hardest
[Verse 2]
So -
It's terrifying
Goddamn can't think of smiling
I've been caring too much
I've been comparing myself
I've been comparing myself yeah -
Like-
22 million in a goddamn year
How the hell can you do that I don't know yeah
And I've been popping off myself I know it
But I'll never reach those heights you do
So -

[Chorus]
That's what the mask is
Oh goddamn - that's what the point of the mask is
So you can see I'm tryin'
Oh you see me go
I'll just keep on smilin'- I'm going up
So -

[Break]
So long its real, so long its real
Been wearing a smile so long its real
Been comparing myself so long
I've been -
Caring too much I know it, nah
So long its real, so long its real
Been wearing a smile - so long
I've - always been judged by all these faces
Don't know what to do - going places
[Outro]
So long its real, so long its real
So long its real, so long its real
