Under the Mask

[Verse 1] Curtain call, you took your seat Front row view of what I’d be Every scream you never heard Now gets echoed, now gets served Paint the silence, frame the scene Turn your fear to something seen You watched close but missed the act— Now I’m here to pay that back [Pre-Chorus] Spotlight flickers, cue the sound Watch the hero breaking down You loved the thrill from far away— Now you’re in the role you played [Chorus] Under the mask I’m the face you helped create Every moment that you watched Turned obsession into fate Under the mask Hear the laughter cutting through You were cheering from the dark— Now the joke’s on you [Verse 2] Script was written in your doubt Every word you left me out You defined what I became Now I weaponize the name Every headline fed the role Every whisper shaped the soul You can’t separate the art— I’ve been living in your heart [Pre-Chorus 2] Hear the audience breathe it in Every loss becomes a win You don’t get to look away— You’re the reason I can stay [Chorus] Under the mask I’m the face you helped create Every moment that you watched Turned obsession into fate Under the mask Hear the laughter cutting through You were cheering from the dark— Now the joke’s on you [Bridge – theatrical, almost unhinged energy] Take a bow—this is your design Every scar, every line You gave meaning to the blade Now enjoy the part you played Say you never wanted this— But you stayed to watch it twist [Breakdown / Drop Section] No more distance No more screen You don’t wake up From this scene [Final Chorus – bigger, aggressive theatrical climax] Under the mask There’s no fiction left to hide You fed the fire in the dark Now it’s burning you alive Under the mask Hear the laughter in the end This was never just a story— This is where it always bends
