Fangrin Vendal - Behind the Mask Lyrics

Every day I put it on, the face that hides my truth
In this charade, I play along, concealing all my wounds
Behind this mask, I'm just a ghost, a shadow of myself
In this darkness, I am lost, trapped within this hell
You see a smile, but it's a lie
A facade I wear to get by
Beneath the surface, I decay
In this mask, I'm led astray
Behind the mask, I'm screaming loud
In the shadows, I'm not proud
Every lie, every sin
In this mask, I can't begin
You think you know me, but you don't, it's all a grand disguise
In this illusion, I am bound, hiding from your eyes
My reflection's twisted, torn apart, a puppet on a string
In this masquerade of broken hearts, I am suffering
You see a smile, but it's a lie
A facade I wear to get by
Beneath the surface, I decay
In this mask, I'm led astray
Behind the mask, I'm screaming loud
In the shadows, I'm not proud
Every lie, every sin
In this mask, I can't begin
Behind the mask, I'm screaming loud
In the shadows, I'm not proud
Every lie, every sin
In this mask, I can't begin
You think this mask makes me strong
But in truth, it feels all wrong
A prison made of my own fears
A cage built from my silent tears
Behind the mask, I'm screaming loud
In the shadows, I'm not proud
Every lie, every sin
In this mask, I can't begin
In the end, the mask will fall
Revealing nothing after all
In the silence, I remain
Bound forever by this chain
I can't begin
