Behind The Mask

You loved me when you created me
All of your attention purely held
Made in your reflection
Leaving nothing to hide

You could not take my barren stare
So a mask was donned
To hide behind there

I show myself, giving it freely
Every circuit and every weld
Imperfect as I am without perfection
Looking through me to the inside

You could not take my barren stare
So a mask was donned
To hide behind there

Yet behind this mask there is more
Dreams and wishes held close
Will I ever be equal as a man
Can I walk outside just to be free

You could not take my barren stare
So a mask was donned
To hide behind there

So many more questions I have in store
Will I go to Heaven? Only God knows
Created to be more than just a tin can
Behind this mask I clearly see
