City of Masks Lyrics

Concrete jungle where the faces all blend

Everybody's got a story but it's hard to pretend

Behind every smile there's a shadow that hides

Secrets in the skyline truth in disguise

The suits walk fast but the cracks in their soles

Tell a tale of ambition and the weight of their goals

The kid on the corner got dreams in his eyes

But the city only sees him as a number to deny

We're all actors in a play wearing masks every day

But the cracks start to show when the spotlight fades

Underneath the surface the truth's taking shape

The city of masks it's a dangerous stage

Take off your mask show me who you are

In the city of illusions you're a fading star

Behind the glitz and the glam there's a battle inside

So drop the disguise let your soul collide

The billboard screams "You need more to be whole"

But the price of perfection is the cost of your soul

Chasing validation in a digital maze

While the real you's buried under filters and haze

They'll sell you a dream wrapped in neon and lies

But when the high fades you're just one of the cries

I see it in their eyes—hunger guilt and despair

In this city of masks does anyone care?

We're all actors in a play wearing masks every day

But the cracks start to show when the spotlight fades

Underneath the surface the truth's taking shape

The city of masks it's a dangerous stage

Take off your mask show me who you are

In the city of illusions you're a fading star

Behind the glitz and the glam there's a battle inside

So drop the disguise let your soul collide

The truth is heavy but it's lighter than lies

The mirror's reflection it won't compromise

So take a deep breath let the façade break free

'Cause the world needs the version only you can be

In the city of masks we're all just the same

Hiding our stories erasing our names

But the brave step forward let the light expose

The beauty in the flaws that nobody knows
