| Wear a mask of sanity, it takes a lot of time
|
| You gotta claw your way from the
|
| bottom of the ladder if your
|
| gonna stand out in line.
|
| You’d never guess the secret for a
|
| trick to play out so well
|
| You gotta make a deal with someone if
|
| You’re gonna reign in hell, c’mon
|
| Running on empty to be free,
|
| You’re wearing a mask of sanity
|
| Take care of yer problems and let me be,
|
| You’re wearing a mask of sanity
|
| You ain’t got no divinity, no
|
| You’re wearing a mask of sanity
|
| Get too close and you might see
|
| Wear a mask of sanity and cover up your tracks.
|
| If you’re in for the long
|
| hual brother you got to watch behind your back.
|
| Don’t reveal your sources mama,
|
| Watch who you befriend
|
| If you let them get too close,
|
| it’ll prove to be your end
|
| C’mon! |
| Running on empty to be free
|
| You’re wearing a mask of sanity
|
| Take care of yer problems and let me be,
|
| You’re wearing a mask of sanity
|
| You ain’t got no divinity, no
|
| We all wear a mask of sanity
|
| You got the pieces
|
| You got the power
|
| And no one needs to know
|
| You’re in a tailspin, you wanna live forever
|
| Someone wants to be forever
|
| Someone has to get together
|
| My brains are messed up
|
| From all the things I’ve tried.
|
| I bought this mask to wear so I can hide
|
| It makes me look normal — now they all think I’m sane,
|
| I put my mask on and wash away the constant pain
|
| I used to look for fun — now I’m too lazy
|
| I put my mask on and then I’m not so crazy
|
| If you are trapped now —
|
| and you need to be free
|
| Hit the road with a mask of sanity, C’mon
|
| You got the pieces
|
| You got the power
|
| And no one needs to know
|
| You’re in a tailspin
|
| You wanna live forever
|
| Something has toget together
|
| Someone must take it home
|
| He’s never going home
|
| He’s only gonna roam
|
| HE’S NEVER GOIN HOME!
|
| I feel «let down» well up inside of me
|
| That’s when I put on a mask of sanity. |
