Behind the Mask Lyrics

by Lord

Now night time is falling and I sit here alone

With the sound of the waves and the setting sun

Walking the long mile from the sand to the sea

A personal journey of childhood dreams

A lonely road

So much more left to see

Hoping one day that this road leads to me

I walk alone on the beach in the night

Feel the wind that whispers memories

Sometimes it feels like you’re not in control of your life

But you live each day like nothing’s wrong

So what can you do

When your dreams all come true

The future’s bright, but you’re dying inside

Behind the mask is where you’ll find the real me

It’s true for every one of us

Behind the mask you’ll find us crying in the night

Shut out the world, I close my eyes

Living the lie – it’s so easy to do

Only to find one day a truth I always knew

Breaking away from uncertainty’s sweet embrace

I wipe the sand now from my eyes

In a blinking eye

Ten years pass us by

And all we’re left is wasted time

Facing my demons here alone

Down on my knees I shed my skin
