Locked And Fading

I hear a voice calling my name
See images flashing through my head
The memories of who I was
Before this prison locked my mind

The things I do just to belong
The masks I wear each place I go
The songs I like, the things I say
I'm not in control of my own life

The revolution has begun
It's time to find my long lost self
Reach out to grab my deepest core
Take off the mask that hides me

The mirror shows a blurry shape
I can't see who's staring at me

'Cause I'm locked in the masks I choose to wear
I'm forgetting who I am
I'm fading; I'm losing my true self
I thought that I was free
But I guess I'm not!

When I am on my own
In the silence, all alone
When the mask falls
Who's that underneath?

I can feel it now, I'm into my mind
Into myself, into my soul
Into my dream, a dream of not letting go
Here the mirror shows a clearer sight
I can see who's staring at me
'Cause dreaming I see clearer
Who I am and what I know
But this moment fades like smoke
With the memory of my face
So when I'm awake
I don't remember who I am
I fear I can't break free of the
Prison of the masks

You have to work
You have to dance
You have to date
But you have to behave
You just don't know
Who you are anymore
'Cause you are just another mind
That's locked and fading

You have to be a good son
You have to be a good friend
A good husband
You just don't know
Who you are anymore
'Cause you are just another mind
That's locked and fading

You have to wear this mask here
Now you have to wear this mask
Don't take them off
No one wants to see
Who you really are
'Cause you are just another mind
That's locked and fading

The mirror shows a clearer shape
Now I can see that I don't have a face

'Cause I'm locked in the masks I have to wear
Now it's too late to escape
I've faded; I've lost my true self
I'm a character with no soul
We're all locked and we're fading behind masks
Don't forget who you are
Before it's too late
