**[Pre-Chorus]**  
But the cracks are showing, can't you see?  
The mask he's wearing isn’t real, it's just debris.  
In the silence, he whispers lies,  
A broken soul, behind those cold eyes.

**[Chorus]**  
The cracked gentleman, dressed in black,  
Dancing on the edge, never looking back.  
He hides his pain, under a golden mask,  
But deep inside, you’ll never ask—  
The cracked gentleman, lost in time,  
Searching for a love that he’ll never find.

**[Refrain/Call & Response]**  
**Leader:** *Le démon fêlé déguisé en gentleman*  
**Response:** *He’s the cracked gentleman, dressed in black*  
**Leader:** *Le démon fêlé déguisé en gentleman*  
**Response:** *Hiding the pain he’ll never get back*

---

**[Verse 2]**  
He laughs at the crowd, he plays the part,  
But there’s no warmth inside his heart.  
A twisted mind, so sharp, so wild,  
Chasing illusions, lost like a child.

**[Pre-Chorus]**  
But the cracks are showing, can't you see?  
The mask he's wearing isn’t real, it's just debris.  
In the silence, he whispers lies,  
A broken soul, behind those cold eyes.

---

**[Bridge]**  
He’s pretending, oh, he’s pretending,  
To be the man they all are sending.  
But deep within, the devil grins,  
His mind is cracked, and it never wins.

---

**[Outro]**  
So here he stands, the cracked gentleman,  
A broken soul, but still he’ll stand.  
In the darkness, he'll fade away,  
Chasing shadows, lost in the fray.

[End]
