the grinning man - labyrinth lyrics

(london lyrics):

grinpayne
the city with its dark embrace
shows its twisted damaged face
and reflects the labyrinth of my mind

here amongst these winding streets
invisible, i move with ease
no one sees the monster walking by

but something inside me is burning
as my broken world started turning
the people say the grinning man’s opened their eyes
can they hear the future in my shattered cries?

when they are gazing at my grin
what is it that they see inside?
this laughter of a strange and joyful kind

as if my thoughts could scorch the air
and find a new truth hanging there
maybe it’s time to leave my past behind

what if this freak that they’re crowding to see
what if that monster could also change me?
and even if i knew what had caused all this pain
why in the h-ll would i want to feel it again?

dea said that she’d help me
she said the past could set me free
and open up the darkness in my mind
but i have sought my past too long
confusion was a kind of home
and pain the only comfort i could find

stories are her way of seeing
but she’s not the one who needs freeing
dea loves the tale of what happened to me
but she wouldn’t love me if her eyes could see

if they find laughter in my face
why should i run from their embrace?
they’re dancing with the monsters in my mind

this letter could make me feel whole
if she can see what’s in my soul
and touch it with a heart that isn’t blind

the search for the past hasn’t healed me
but somehow this letter reveals me
could this erase the pain of my shame and disgrace?
because she sees the beauty in my broken face

(bristol lyrics):

grinpayne
the city with its dark embrace
shows its twisted damaged face
and reflects the labyrinth of my mind

here amongst these winding streets
invisible, i move with ease
no one sees the monster walking by

whose is this mask i’m wearing?
whose is this past i’m carrying?
n0body can see past my hideous grin
i can’t put a name to the monster within

what was it i left behind
on that black and bitter night?
it’s hiding in the labyrinth of my mind

everywhere i look i see
the darkness eating into me
why is it that the truth’s so hard to find?

what if this face i’m hiding
is all that there is deep inside me?
even if i knew what had caused all this pain
why in h-ll would i want to feel it again?

dea says it’s truth you need
she says the truth can set me free
and open up the darkness in my mind
but maybe this is where i belong
confusion is a kind of home
and restlessness the only peace i’ll find

stories are her way of seeing
but she’s not the one who needs freeing
she loves the tale of what happened to me
but she wouldn’t love me if her eyes could see

the city streets are sharp and blue [?]
what i feel now is just as true
as anything that’s hidden in my mind

this letter brings a pulse of life
to a beating heart cut by a knife
maybe it’s time to leave my past behind

the search for the past hasn’t healed me
may even have helped to conceal me
this woman sheds a truer light on my disgrace
because she sees the beauty in my broken face
