The Mask We Left Behind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And if then my life is just created
If the theatre of my days must stop
Can I leave behind the roles I've acted
Can I leave behind the masks and forge ahead
To live again to feel free
Without choosing to want to please you and to betray everything
The curtain falls the play is finished this very day
Who is hidden behind the mask I've taken off?
To have to learn again; to live in the unknown
The rules are changed; the game is not the same
From mis-matched costumes I sew again the least
Repairing who I am but who I do not know
To live again to feel free
Without choosing to want to please you and to betray everything
The curtain falls the play is finished this very day
Who is hidden behind the mask I've taken off?
After impressions and illusions I see myself at last
In the mirror I see what this old wreck looks like
I see it born again, restored, to take the air
The curtain rises the mask falls
And who I feared to look for now appears
To discover who I am, I've abandoned my disguises
All the armour I'd learnt to always wear
I never look backwards any more
I've let the mask fall, far behind
