Broken Masquerade
Today seems like any other day
A painted smile that is put on display
A living hero with his power play
Yet this hero, inside, wastes away
But this world will never know
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
As I clock in for my nine-to-five
I kick this masquerade in overdrive
A simple plan in life that I've contrived
To give the illusion that I'm still alive
But this world will never know
I hide it deep so it won't show
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
This is how it's supposed to be
Don't want you worrying about me
The less you know, the greater is my show
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
A painted smile that is put on display
A living hero with his power play
Yet this hero, inside, wastes away
But this world will never know
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
As I clock in for my nine-to-five
I kick this masquerade in overdrive
A simple plan in life that I've contrived
To give the illusion that I'm still alive
But this world will never know
I hide it deep so it won't show
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
This is how it's supposed to be
Don't want you worrying about me
The less you know, the greater is my show
Just because everything seems well
Doesn't mean it's not going to hell
I'm bottled up so no one knows
Just because I seem so mundane
Doesn't mean that I feel the same
These wounds inside will never show
So you don't know
