Mask Of Decay


A body can be owned, used, and abused
A mind can be molded and controlled
But to capture the very essence of a soul
One must posess love, wisdom, patience, and be true to their role
A facade can only last for so long
Trying to be something your not will eventually lead you wrong
You will think that she is yours in every way
Too proud of what you are to realize that her heart is astray
Know yourself well before trying to own another
For if she is real and you are not, this she soon will discover
