The Mask |
| Everyone in this place is selling something |
| Or selling themselves on someone new |
| And if a week goes by, I guess you and I will discover |
| What we look like |
| But, for the moment, what we view |
| Is the mask |
| We wear the mask |
| And the mask conceals us all too well: |
| We’re believing the face we sell |
| Everyone in this place is buying something |
| Or taking a no-risk free home trial |
| But if you buy a line that’s not even mine |
| What’s the point in even talking? |
| So why don’t we leave these lines awhile |
| 'Cause here it comes— |
| It might be love— |
| But the mask is standing in the way |
| There are so many things to say. |
| . |
| Could be true |
| Could be me |
| Could be you |
| Tear the mask off |
| Tear the mask off |
| Tear it all off |
| Everyone in this world is right for someone |
| I’ve always believed those words are true |
| But if we sell ourselves as somebody else |
| We could make a misconnection; |
| You’ll end up with one who loves not you |
| But the mask |
| We wear the mask |
| Tear the mask from off your face and find |
| The you that is in my mind. |
| Could be you who I see… |
| Could be true. |
| Tear the mask off |
| Tear the mask off |
| Tear it all off |
