Lyrics Masks - Ursina

Masks

Many human beings I meet in the city
Seem so busy and self-absorbed
They look down on the street, their faces do not tell me
What they think or even what they feel
I walk through the streets and wonder why they seem
So distant and all alone
Is it easier that way and can they handle their day
Without sharing what’s going on
They walk and talk and they eat their meals
As fast as they can cause work is waiting again
They hurry and worry all day long
Until they finally go to sleep
I sit down on a bench, observe the passing people
How they move, how they act all weird
They can’t let loose, need to know all the news
Are addicted to all sorts of things
They care about their jobs and play perfect roles
Never admit to feel weak or low
How long can this go on?
They are fighting on their own
Losing hopes and dreams for good
This world is such a crazy place
It’s all about the come and go
People, where the hell are we heading to?
They walk and talk and they eat their meals
As fast as they can cause work is waiting again
They hurry and worry all day long
Until they finally go to sleep
