Everyday I put on this mask
To protect myself from the their piercing gaze.
I live with this single face
That shows no emotion.
But behind this mask I dream of
A life full of passion.
And all that I'm left with are:
Memories from a dream;
Memories from a past that I've never seen;
Memories from a future that will never be;
Because behind this mask I hide.
Behind this mask I hide.
Behind the mask, my soul resides.
My soul has become pale
Not from darkness but absence of light.
I want to set myself free
And breathe the fresh air.
I reach to remove the mask and find
That there's nothing there.
And all that I'm left with are:
Memories from a dream;
Memories from a past that I've never seen;
Memories from a future that will never be;
Because behind this mask I hide.
Behind this mask I hide.
Behind the mask, my soul resides.
Everything I longed for has passed me by
As I watched afraid to come out.
How did I become this?
This isn't who I wanted to be.
I thought I would learn to fly, but
My fears have gotten the best of me.
Now all I'm left with are:
Memories from a dream;
Memories from a past that I've never seen;
Memories from a future that will never be;
Because behind this mask I hide.
Behind this mask I hide.
Behind the mask, my soul has died.
i hope its not too cheesy
