With torn and bleeding smiles we move on And mouth all different kinds of broken promises Why should our days be spent in denial While counting our faults and ripping our hearts out Let them only see us, while we wear the mask that hides Never let them know us, as the tortured soul inside Feel the hate beneath our feet before the longest mile Say the words we can't forget, or chose to say otherwise We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies Behind our doors the time cannot be whisked away Crashing and burning, leaving hints of darkness Deep within their withered faces, lines are sunken in We say we're fine behind the mask We say we're fine, why do you ask We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies Hear the words they speak and they don't hear the call Looking forward nothing more to feel at all Until the day they wake and see the damage caused The longest mile is the step you never take at all We wear the mask We wear the mask We wear the mask We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies
