Behind The Mask

(album: Darkness Will Rise - 2017)

Lost
I'm running in circles again
But it seems all these doors are open
Like mirrors reflecting the truth begins

Nothing
Nowhere
Blackness
Despair

Wait
I see something moving ahead
I must not let myself get drawn in
There's a man in a mask reaching out to lend his hand

Will I ever find a way out of this place
Everywhere I seem to turn all looks the same
But still I walk this lonely road when will it end
I can see my fall from grace

These aching moments
Just to obliterate my skin
Where do I go now
How can I find my way home
In desperation I am hiding the truth
Only to be found out in the end

Now
I see through their blood-thirsty gaze
And I've realised that I am the prey
Disguising intentions to then betray

Now I know
All these treacherous secrets you keep
And my anguish is lifted from me
Sincerity failed only left deceit

Will I ever find a way out of this place
Everywhere I seem to turn all looks the same
But still I walk this lonely road when will it end
I can see my fall from grace

These aching moments
Just to obliterate my skin
Where do I go now
How can I find my way home
In desperation I am hiding the truth
Only to be found out in the end

As I drown my dignity
I try to understand this life
Find a place where I belong
The truth burns up inside
And the flames provide the light to find
That I never belonged here at all

As I drown my dignity
I try to understand this life
Where do I belong
The truth burns up inside
And the flames provide the light to find
That I never belonged here at all

These aching moments
Just to obliterate my skin
Where do I go now
How can I find my way home
In desperation I am hiding the truth
Only to be found out in the end
