The Mask

Emperor

Watch the mask slip off

See yourself bare

Dreams of perfect illusion

Evolve into a nightmare

 

Lies hurt twice as much 

When one knows not they're lies

Feel we are so better

Our flaws concealed from our eyes

 

Handsome man looks good

The ugliness he hides

All of us have our monsters

Few come to play outside 

 

Watch the mask slip off

See yourself bare

Dreams of perfect illusion

Evolve into a nightmare
