dreamslain - my mask lyrics

a mask behind to hide my fears
a wicked smile: i’ll show no tears
no dreams in cold glass eyes
as i rise to live a life of lies

once i was a dreamer, with a burning heart
filled with hopes and dreams, but they were torn apart
i wanted evil to fight, and find friends and trust
but the world around is cold, with no love, only l+st
still i reached out, to conquer the fears
as a moth to flame, all that i got was tears
broken, i recoiled, it was all in vain
so i take on a mask, to hide away my pain

a mask behind to hide my fears
a wicked smile: i’ll show no tears
no dreams in cold glass eyes
as i rise to live a life of lies

steel clad, my scars hidden by plate
and i’ll smile to the cruel ones i hate
a trained response, then turn away
never speak up, it won’t help anyway
passing the grey and mask clad crowd
my head held high while theirs are bowed
and i’ll pretend as do the rest
that i’m content to live this bitter jest
still when alone, i’ll sometimes dream
i’ll tear off my mask and in silence scream
i see that my dreams are into ashes turned
gone is what i tried to save after i was burned
no place for a hero in this world so cold
where indifference rules, and dreams bought and sold
can’t find a soul that understands the way i feel
so i turn back, take on my mask of steel

a mask behind to hide my fears
a wicked smile: i’ll show no tears
no dreams in cold glass eyes
as i rise to live a life of lies

i look out in the crowded room
and see a soul i know must head for doom
no mask to hide the hopes and dreams
quickly she’ll fall, crushed by their schemes
it’s like a mirror, of what i once were
the smile that i lost is shining on her
if she is me, then who am i?
all that i have, is it all just a lie?

is it too late now, or can i still be
reach for the mirror and grasp what i see
can i win back the smile and the tears
or am i dead now, k!lled by my fears?
if i tear off my mask, is the face still there?
will i find my dreams, will i learn to care?
is it too late now, i still have to try
cast away the reign of schemes, i can’t live this lie
no mask to hide away my tears
i’ll dare to smile, i’ll face my fears
my dreams i will not leave to die
never again shall i live this lie!
