Beneath The Mask Lyrics

I've got these lines that tell my story

Etched in skin a tale of pain and glory

But I hide them all beneath a mask I wear

A fragile smile pretending not to care

But underneath there's a storm that rages

A battle fought on empty pages

And though I try to keep it all at bay

The scars remain won't fade away

Cover up the bloody scars

Hide the pain that's torn apart

Keep it locked inside don't let them see

The broken soul that's lost in me

Cover up cover up the marks that bleed

Paint a picture of the life I need

But the truth remains behind closed doors

I'm just covering up these bloody scars

I paint my face a canvas of deception

(Deception)

Pretend I'm whole erase the imperfection

(Imperfection)

But in the dark when no one's near

I trace the wounds confront my fear

The mirror shows a different view

A broken heart a soul unglued

But in the light I play my part

Conceal the cracks within my heart

Cover up the bloody scars

Hide the pain that's torn apart

Keep it locked inside don't let them see

The broken soul that's lost in me

Cover up cover up the marks that bleed

Paint a picture of the life I need

But the truth remains behind closed doors

I'm just covering up these bloody scars

And when the night falls and I'm all alone

The truth comes out the mask is gone

But when the sun rises I start again

A new disguise to hide the pain

Cover up the bloody scars

Hide the pain that's torn apart

Keep it locked inside don't let them see

The broken soul that's lost in me

Cover up cover up the marks that bleed

Paint a picture of the life I need

But the truth remains behind closed doors

I'm just covering up these bloody scars

Yeah the truth remains behind closed doors

I'm just covering up these bloody scars
