(A-

yo,

Pe-

rish,

this

is

hot,

boy)

I

wear

a

mask

with

a

smile

for

ho-

urs

at

a

time

Stare

at

the

ceil-

ing

while

I

hold

back

what's

on

my

mind

And

when

they

ask

me

how

I'm

do-

ing

I

say,

"I'm

just

fine"

And

when

they

ask

me

how

I'm

do-

ing

I

say,

"I'm

just

fine"

But the fact

is

I

can

ne-

ver

get

off

of

my

mat-

tress

And

all

that

they

can

ask

is

"Why

are

you

so

sad,

kid?"

That's

what

the

mask

is

That's

what

the

po-

int

of

the

mask

is

So

you

can

see

I'm

try-

in'

You

won't

see

me

cry-

in'

I'll

just

keep

on

smil-

in',

just

keeps

on

pil-

in'

It's

Al-
