The Mask and the Mirror

I feel it on my skin

When the darkness settles in

And I know it's time

First the quiet, then the pain

And I'm back in hell again

And I wanna die

You might find me in the shadows

You might see me in the light

But you'll never know the demons that I fight

And this face I wear for you

Goddamn, I wear it well

And I'll see you on the other side of hell

I'll walk around in silence

All the while in need of guidance through the haze

And I try to do my very best

But this heart is dark inside my chest these days (these days) (these days)

You might find me in the shadows

You might see me in the light

But you'll never know the demons that I fight

And this face I wear for you

Goddamn, I wear it well

I'll see you on the other side of hell (ooh_

There's comfort in the pain sometimes (ah)

And I tend to tell myself these little lies (ah)

And I feel it like a storm inside (ah)

When I've lost the will to live, I've lost the fight

You might find me in the shadows

You might see me in the light

But you'll never know the demons that I fight

And this face I wear for you

Goddamn, I wear it well

And I'll see you on the other side of hell

You might find me in the shadows

You might see me in the light

But you'll never know the demons that I fight

And this face I wear for you

Goddamn, I wear it well

I'll see you on the other side of hell
