Mask Lyrics by The Minstrel

Hollowed Out

2015

I look in the mirror and I make a sigh
I put on my crumbling mask without asking why
I go outside and show my face
This mask it holds my mind's disgrace
Smile as the people go
It's what they want, it's what I'll show
Can't bring too much people near
Don't want to show them what's in here
Behind this smiling mask you see
A face filled up with agony
Put it on, and I look bright
Looking to the future, it's within my sight
Thrash around, try to take flight
Sprint forward doing what I believe is right
Taking heed of words proceeding to me
And try to look like I know what I need
So you'll see, I'll scurry quickly to be free
From the reason that this mask is breaking
From inside, the thoughts erode my mind
And there's nowhere to hide, but I know I'll survive
Because I have this mask, built it to hold me back
But will I stand a chance when this mask breaks like glass?
Will I try to clean the pieces it will leave
Or lose my sanity and go make something bleed?
I guess I have no choice, I must confront this voice
And maybe I will hoist
Above this violent noise
