The Mask (

Is my will enough?
To turn dust to bone?
Should you wake me up?
I'll be coming and coming again

Are these words enough?
To turn this mud to gold?
I am torn!
But I'll be coming and coming again

I am
I'm a mask
I'm old, torn and worn out
Let me bask
In your sweet doubt

Inside the house we live in there's a knife
It can open some wounds, and shut some mouths
The blade shines the way you never could
And it never talks back
Oh won't you let me get a little comfortable?
Peel the skin away, let's play a game

Stop hiding!
Find me!
I see you!
Look where I can hide!
I'll take you to hollow grounds

I will wake you in mourning
Let red sun illuminate
Your blue surrounding
Swim into the purple state

I will ask you a question
Please, babe, try not to waver
My feelings are private confessions
And your words are my savior

Pretty liars don't get the reward
That they should deserve
Your pretty mouth should have stayed crimson and wide shut

So this is what you will get
For being so indecisive
For always wanting both things
So here is both pleasure and pain

Is this what you really wanted?
Is this the color that hunted?
Is this the face of the martyr?
Is this the face you can look at?
Is this the price you wanted to pay?
Are you getting too close to the stairway?
I this what you really wanted?
Cause death is the only thing you will get!

Oooo, what a surprise
How could I been so blind?
Let me get in my new disguise
I hope that you don't mind?
Uuuuhhh, pretty baby
Let us not waste any time
I little cut there, cut little here
Now we're doing fine

I am
I'm a mask
I'm old, torn and worn out
I am three
And you are me

Inside the house we live now is love
It can open some wounds, and shut some mouths
Love shines the way you never could
Love could never talk back
Fly with me over the meadows
Peel the mask away and sing with joy!

Is this world
All that you will ever see?
Through bitter tears
We'll see the rainbow lights
Are these feelings all for us
And we will sing
We will dance the night away

Please mend my broken mind
Crying voice will let the sound
And tear the silence

Is this world all that there is to see?
Reaching for the highest highs and fall
Deep inside my mind, mind, mind
