What is it about external perfection
that takes away all there is to see?
Humanity has flaws so no mask can hide who we are.

I'm just a flower.
Fragile and weak
Tragically beautiful
Take my life and turn me into something so much stronger
Make me an aluminum rose

True beauty is embedded in the strength of the stone
Real rubies are strong where the fake ones will break
My mask always falls off in a storm
So make me an aluminum rose

Little bird hiding within yourself,
sing your little song.
Sing for all the world to hear.
Even if it feels like no one is listening,
sing with all your heart.
You will mean the world to somebody someday.
