"We all know the atomic bomb is dangerous
Since it may be used against us
We must get ready for it
Just as we are ready for many dangers that are around us all the time..."
We're living the American Dream
Little white fence in the front yard
Pearls and jewels aren't what they seem
Jackie O, honey I'm home
Oh-wow-ow I've been playing make believe
Cookie cutter, wifey I ate the truth that you fed me
Painted on a smile all awhile
And deep down I knew I was one of many
It hit me with reality
Set my world on fire, but I didn't burn down
Rose above the flames, yeah I did it somehow
Because I know this too shall pass
I'm livin' underneath the mask

Rose above the flames, yeah I did it somehow
Because I know this too shall pass
I'm livin' underneath the mask
Even in the dark when I lost my way
Seemed to find the glow leading back to me
And yeah I know this too shall pass
Of living underneath the mask

The grass is green so I'll be runnin' to the other side
Thank you for revealin' yourself to me
And God knows you and I just weren't meant to be
I'm thankful, I'm thankful that now I see
Yeah, yeah
Set my world on fire, but I didn't burn down
Rose above the flames, yeah I did it somehow
Because I know this too shall pass
I'm livin' underneath the mask
Even in the dark when I lost my way
Seemed to find the glow leading back to me
And yeah I know this too shall pass
Of living underneath the mask
Yeah
Underneath the mask
Yeah
Underneath the mask
Yeah
Underneath the mask
Yeah
