The Mask

I'm not used to this attention
I just wait and take what I can get
I plant the seeds and then I wait my turn
I pretend like it's an accident
But it's just part of a pattern
I build a bridge just to watch it burn

I pantomime I play the part
I say my lines to further the plot
I go through the motions I'm feigning focus
It's a matter of time before the mask slips off

I'm a figure in your menagerie
Imagine living ever happily
Just cause I'm curious doesn't mean I care
You're a test for me to pass
And I got all the right answers
You wanna be close but you can't even breathe my air

I pantomime I play the part
I say my lines to further the plot
I go through the motions I'm feigning focus
It's a matter of time before the mask slips off
