shadows edge - mask (dorian grey) lyrics
yeah. yo, coal cash
it’s like we’re always wearing masks man, all of us
we wear masks, i put on a mask for the masks i’m gonna meet
am i ever me ? are we ever we?
it’s like yo we hiding
i don’t wanna hide anymore, you know what i’m sayin
shadows edge
it’s been awhile since i’ve showed you what’s beneath the mask
bask in deep ravines crowning my dreams with a wreath of ash
release the wrath on a path of self-inflicted scorn
torn through my visage and looked dismissive on his twisted form
storms -ssisted flooded potential from torrential rains
but the stains on my temple held monumental to its essential pain
a mental strain from migraines that caress my thoughts
wrought a constant pounding that’s dumbfounding in its hounding stalk
my corpse drowning in an astounding sense self denial and while i felt it wrong i’m no more strong than a helpless child
a selfish smile i’ll beguile until it feels sincere, then sneer at your cries as your welling eyes begin to tear
the fear applies until it drives me to the brink of break
if i make these lies true, then what is true, that i think is fake
i link this fate to shape realities we misconstrue
then viewed from neutrality on finalities we disapprove
and this alludes back to the fallacy of a safety net
regretting swan dives as we collide with a hasty death
a waste of breath if i said i don’t enjoy the filth
was built to be destroyed, wish i was void but can’t avoid the guilt
it wilts my soul cause i don’t know if i’ll have a reprieve
i grieve in this haunting, a longing that has gathered my greed
conceiving realities, a lie that we rather believe than a truth that had daunted from what we never wanted to see
(hook)
what’s revealed when the mask’s away
we’re living life in a masquerade
(take it off, take it off)
wanna heal, wanna show the way
we are more than roles we play
(get it off, get it off) (stand out, stand out)
behind the visage that your mind defines, steppin out from what you hide behind
(come out, come out)(shine bright , shine bright)
stand out, shine your beauty far
be proud of who you truly are
(shine down shine down ) (stand up stand up)
(x2)
sardonic sabotage
facade, a chronic camouflage
at odds with myself, i stayed in stealth to dodge the camera pod
glamours mirage that had lodged by the snares of h-ll
fell to self-despair it’s hard to care when you wear it well
a smell in the air to bear the intent of nightmare’s descent
venting, my temples flare
locked to my lair tryna bear the rent
i swear lament won’t make a dent in this facetious front
and once it sinks its teeth in it never releases where it leaches from
it keeps us numb from this egregious egress that bleeds us dry
as demons cry to jesus but would deceive us to believe their lies
i plead to the skies, my eyes are basin for my taste in tears
hear my gears grind, robbing more time out of my wasted years
embracing fears, chasing the cheers of peers to praise my work
to search through the hurt and rage, hope for a wage where i’m payed my worth
afraid to merchandise my entice pricing art i make
i wait for employment, how much disappointment my heart can take
my fate’s deployment had a buoyant state of above enc-mbrance
redundant cycles get rougher, guess i’m a sucker for the stuffer’s abundance
i stuck to the dungeon of my repugnance a coven of wrath to cage
in an age of tresp-ss, society basks in this masquerade
the mask was made to give us aid in the lies we pretend
then again i love this parade as the charades help me hide who i am
providing my pen doesn’t intend to make it all in vain
disdain from what helps me remaining stealthy behind these walls of shame
(hook)
