Hidden

Look at yourself
Corrupted by its tongue
The serpent crawls
And drains the colors from our veins
Dropped in this seclusion cell
Fading...

Listen, to the sound
Under the mask you were made to wear
Listen, hidden

And we've lost ourselves
Can you tell amongst the voices in your head?
Masquerade
Going 'round and 'round in the lies we tell ourselves
Fading, away
In the lies we tell ourselves
Fading, away...

Living in prisons of our own creation
Hostage of our own identities
Remove the beam from your eye
And leave the mote to the sheep
Make the cycle end

Listen, to the sound
(Distant from the mask you were made to wear)
Listen, hidden
(Drop it, let go)

And we've lost ourselves
Can you tell amongst the voices in your head?
Masquerade
Going 'round and 'round in the lies we tell ourselves
Fading away
In the lies we tell ourselves
Fading away

Endless shifting of colors
Helps me fit in
As the chameleon crawls
Never showing
Thousands of eyes all around
I can never look past
Grounded in fear of rejection
In the need of emancipation

Who am I when the fire hides?
An ashen heart
A lie
Tear down the mask

I'm the dark foe of those afraid to think
Staining those close-minded souls with permanent ink
Look at the coward in the mirror
Do you really think we can't spot a pretender
All things set in stone, the case is closed
Go away get fucked

Distant I've lost myself inside
But it's over
Now it's over
Please take away my crown of thorns
Afraid we're watching life go by
But it's over
Yeah it's over
Now can you feel the waves flowing out your veins?
