False Faces

I look in the mirror, I put on a face
It belongs to someone who's taken my place
Each day passes quietly, it all goes just fine
I don't even notice the faces aren't mine

A new day, a new face
A new script to recite
It's all fake, what a waste
Who even am I

Where will my face be, among the disguises
Did I sacrifice my true face for the prizes
Even if I find my authentic feelings
I'll have to pay the price, when all my friends are leaving

I look in the mirror, I take off my mask
The face that's before me, the face of the past
Before my performance, I wore my true face
This lie has consumed me, the truth leaves no trace

The mask, it is breaking
Will the curtains ever close
It's just so exhausting
But this is what I chose

Where will my face be, among the disguises
Did I sacrifice my true face for the prizes
Even if I find my authentic feelings
I'll have to pay the price, when all my friends are leaving

Why do I play such an act
Why'd I ever turn my back to the truth
It's what I lack
(It's what I lack, it's what I lack)

Why do I play such an act
Why'd I ever turn my back to the truth
It's what I lack
It's what I lack

Where will my face be, among the disguises
Did I sacrifice my true face for the prizes
Even if I find my authentic feelings
I'll have to pay the price, when all my friends are leaving

Where will my face be, among the disguises
Did I sacrifice my true face for the prizes
Even if I find my authentic feelings
I'll have to pay the price, when all my friends are leaving

I look in the mirror, I put down the mask
I want to be truthful, no lie ever lasts
The honesty costs me a burdensome price
This expense is worth it, the truth is quite nice
