kuripotato - the mask and the mirror lyrics

[verse 1]
she watches, she’s waiting
in silence, the spectres
awake behind her eyes
please line up + the show starts
they’re watching, they’re waiting
reflections revealing
demons growing underneath
condemning all they see of her

[chorus]
i’m dancing, are you watching?
my mask is on display now
twisting, turning, crying, laughing
all of it for your amus+m+nt
come see this new performance
tell me, please say
am i a comеdy or drama?
won’t you tell me who i am?

[verse 2]
misgivings, untold doubt
obscuring her viеw
as she hides her apprehension
it’s time now, no stopping
the shadows, the stirring, the whispers
her ghosts are chanting
as the curtain falls
the final act is still to come
[chorus]
oh look at my performance
this doll is on display now
twisting, turning, crying, laughing
all of it for your amus+m+nt
forget my inhibitions
extravagant emotions
laughing at this tragedy
please tell me who i am

[instrumental]

[verse 3]
suspicion, foreboding
emboldened by howling
her tears begin to fall
distress fills her mind up
derision; indulgence
entwined in attraction
facing her unending fight
addicted to imaginary spite

[chorus]
i poured myself out empty
my soul exposed for you
do you see this? are you happy?
is this what you wanted for me?
ripped up for entertainment
torn open for you pleasure
do i measure up to standards?
tell me who i am!
[chorus]
i’m watching myself dancing
my mask is still on display
twisting, turning, crying, laughing
all of it for my own judgement
inspect my imperfections
record my criticisms
now that i am watching
can i tell me who i am?

[verse 4]
the mask and the mirror opposing
the jeering audience across the glass
was her own gaze
she stares back
she’s watching and waiting
until her reflection
shows her what she wants to see
only then will she at last be free
