[Verse] Midway through shadows where the silence bends A forest dark where my compass ends The path is crooked the echoes scream Is this a nightmare or a fractured dream I wake up wearing porcelain lies Cracks in the glaze where my truth hides The mirror whispers but I don't reply Who am I when no one's watching [Prechorus] One face for the crowd One face for the void Which one am I now Which one was destroyed [Chorus] The mask I wear It hides It gleams Caught between nightmares and dreams No one knows No one sees This mask I wear It isn't me [Verse 2] Staring through windows I’m split in two One side is fiction The other’s true The world demands It carves It shapes But I’m lost in the maze of my own escapes [Bridge] Who am I when the lights fade low Do I stay or let it go The world tries to carve me Into shapes that don't fit But in their hands I am slippery I won't commit I won't submit [Chorus] The mask I wear It hides It gleams Caught between nightmares and dreams No one knows No one sees This mask I wear It isn't me [Verse 3] The mask worn it hides my face A twisted smile born in a hollow space But peel it back you'll see the glare Of a soul that's raw and stripped down bare [Prechorus] Is it freedom or just disguise Truth dissolves when you trade your eyes To be yourself is the boldest feat In a world that craves to see you beat [Chorus] This mask I bear It steals It screams Crushed between my nightmares and dreams I should know I can see This lie I wear Shouldn't be me
