lyrics

When will you stop trying to pretend
That the game we play will ever see its end
You wore that mask for too long
But I will never play along

Act one
Move in place as the curtain draws
You’re a blind fool searching through the light

You put your heart on display
And your emotions on stage
I can’t act out the feelings
They don’t quite portray
Caught in a paradox
It’s not your concern
Here is my desperate attempt
To be loved in return

Hey, where is your weariness of soul?
Your emotions are fled
You left them with the crowd
Behind the mask you’re just tired
But I’ve been torn apart

Act two
Performance by reflection
Your life is a chain of self-deception

Act three
Your mind is comatose
Step back and watch yourself decompose

You put your heart on display
And your emotions on stage
I can’t act out the feelings
They don’t quite portray
Caught in a paradox
It’s not your concern
Here is my desperate attempt
To be loved in return

You wore that mask for too long
But I will never play along
