I present, for your approval, "Persona" by the Blue Man Group:
Every morning I put it on.
I walk outside and I am gone.
And I don't seem to mind anymore.
I can't think what it was like before.
I wore it all the time.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
In the evening I take it off,
But there's another one underneath,
And I can't seem to find the bottom of the stack I
Just might lose my mind and never get it back, but
At least I'll get inside.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
At least I'll get inside.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
There's a feeling that I get sometimes.
It's so small that it's easy to hide.
It's like a howling voice from the distant past.
It seems I've got no choice when it comes to this.
It's building up inside.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
It's building up inside.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

I know I've definitely felt this way before. I wear masks all the time, for good or ill. But I'm happy wearing them. It sounds to me like the way I used to be, in some ways you just aren't comfortable where you are, and you despair, a little bit, when you feel like it won't change. But you can realize people only matter if they matter to you, and if they don't, then who cares what they think? If you would want to change who you are for them, then you'll be happy doing that, and if you don't, they'll either accept you for you or move on. Probably a mix, I think, a compromise. You are always a little bit of a mask and a little bit of your true side no matter how you try. At least, that's what I've thought, based on what I've been though. I know my writing's muddled, but I hope I can help.

So-chan, that seems to be like what I do.
Most people deny parts of themself that they think other people won't like, hiding this is like putting on a mask. I'm a person, I deny parts of myself, and thats like a 180, its about as far from being honest as one can get. I realise this, but instead of embracing this and being honest, I deny my denial, and act like I would if I was being honest, another 180 turn.
The only thing I can say here is, what I described is like saying I went around a circle back to being honest, or myself, but its more like I moved around a screw and went up a little to a slightly different place.

The side I show to most people is kinda cold.
Friends get the friendly side.
And my special someone sees the side no one else does.
I can be quite the romantic.
