Broken Masks

(hmmmm) Behind a painted smile,

I hide

The quiet war that rages deep inside

Another face for them to see

But no one knows the darker half of me

(ahhhh) It pulls the strings in the cold night air

A hidden shape sitting in the chair

There's a phantom wearing my skin tonight

Fighting the dark under fading light

Two minds locked in a silent scream

Waking up inside a fractured dream (yeah!)

I wear the mask to play the part

To cover up the beating of this heart

But looking close into the glass

I see the shadow that will never pass

Who is the master,

who is the slave?

We dug this secret together,

deep in the grave

(no more hiding!)

Lost in the disguise...

(lost inside...)
