Her Mask Is A Human Invention 🌎
She has so much to hide A soft exterior conceals her instability Soft, sleepy hills of green grass Can always open into a sinkhole
A soft exterior conceals her instability Perspective is all that masks her true self, she Can always open into a sinkhole A river of pain
Perspective is all that masks her true self, she Could be out to get you - or perhaps A river of pain Obscures the fact that she really doesn’t care
Could be out to get you - or perhaps The pain she causes Obscures the fact that she really doesn’t care Jagged mountain peaks have no meaning
The pain she causes A figment of your imagination Jagged mountain peaks have no meaning The open sky doesn’t care if you fall
A figment of your imagination Mother earth cares nothing for us The open sky doesn’t care if you fall Her mask is a human invention
