Wear The Mask (The Amazing Digital Circus Gangle Song)

So wear the mask

Play the part

Of someone harder in the heart

And never someone, easy to break

Another day, another show with no rehearsal

Another way I'm gonna probably make it worse for the person next to me

What do you expect of me, cause in my head

You think less of me, it's stressing me

A self-fulfilling prophecy

I'll wear a brittle grin

I'll get a little in my own head

Try to work out what I misread

What I got wrong

I'll weave myself into a new shape for you

Twist the corners of mouth when you're around

Hang on every word that you say, your performer

No more than a clown

I'll live in the spotlight, not getting it quite right

And when I mess up it'll keep me up all night

Stuck in a loop of fight or flight

I feel the safest under porcelain and paint

Smile forcing through the pain, I'm only here to entertain

Hard to say, what remains

When I stumble off of the stage

Does the one behind the role still have a face

So wear the mask

Play the part

Of someone harder in the heart

And never someone, easy to break

Just a facsimile

Of what a person's meant to be

So pull the ribbon

I'll unravel

Always hiding

Something fragile

Da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da

Da da da da

At even the slightest sleight, I'm letting it slip

Feeling it chip

Feel it unraveling, follow the script

I'm losing my words, losing my temper

Out of the energy just to remember

It's all in my head

I start to crack under the pressure

Another lesson that I'll never measure

Up, either way I feel stuck, if I keep it bottled up

It's gonna hit me like a truck

Thought I finally figured out the face to make to make you make the

Face you wanna make but I can only take a little till I break

Oh, there it goes

Sound the alarm we're completely exposed

Emotional short-circuit, more hurt than it should've been possible

Fully illogical

Think I'm responsible for those around me

Like I've been crowned the all-accountable god of working out these

Emotional needs, communicatively

Defeated and fatigued, I try but I can't be

The kind of perfectly, constructed person

For your service need to earn

My place on earth it's how you see me

That determines what I'm worth

So wear the mask

Play the part

Of someone harder in the heart

And never someone, easy to break

Just a facsimile

Of what a person's meant to be

So pull the ribbon

I'll unravel

Always hiding

Something fragile

Hard to tell, hard to see

Is the show for you or me

Just a way to be

Relieved of all responsibility

Where does it end, where do I start

Am I the face and not the heart

Am I actor of the year

Or just the part?

Hold it in, hold it tight, fake a smile, get it right

If you wanna make it through then act like you believe it too

Stay in line, stay in place, are they looking at your face

If you crack under the pressure gonna lose them all forever

Hold it in, hold it tight, fake a smile, get it right

If you wanna make it through then act like you believe it too

Stay in line, stay in place, are they looking at your face

If you crack under the pressure gonna lose them all forever

Hold it in, hold it tight, fake a smile, get it right

If you wanna make it through then act like you believe it too

Stay in line, stay in place, are they looking at your face

If you crack under the pressure gonna lose them all forever

So wear the mask

Play the part

Of someone harder in the heart

And never someone, easy to break

Just a facsimile

Of what a person's meant to be

So pull the ribbon

I'll unravel

Always hiding

Something fragile

Da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da
