Burden

Heavy is the burden
This cloak that I put on
Deep my pain, losing you
A smile to hide my frown
Plastic are promises
I wear upon my sleeve
Incredible, I bow
Master of make believe
The thief of all I'd known
Stripped naked on my knees
Painted face, upside down
See how my makeup bleeds
All the world loves a clown
I stand alone on stage
This girl chameleon
Brokenhearted and brave
