The Mask You've Made Lyrics

I'm weary of the mask that I've been forced to wear

Drowning in silence, feeling so unaware

Unsure of the role that you expect me to play

Crushed under the weight of words I never say

Every move that I make feels like a break from the truth

(Sinking in shadows, just sinking in shadows)

I've grown so distant

Can't sense your presence

Become so drained

Gaining new essence

I'm evolving now

All I strive to be

Is closer to myself

And further from your decree

And I'm aware

I might stumble and fall

But I'm sure

You've felt the same, against the wall

With someone's hopes on you

I've grown so distant

Can't sense your presence

Gaining new essence

Moving from your presence

I've grown so distant

Can't sense your presence

Become so drained

Gaining new essence

I'm evolving now

All I strive to be

Is closer to myself

And further from your decree

I've grown so distant

Can't sense your presence

I've grown so distant

Can't sense your presence
