You can’t see me, i live behind these walls
Like to escape, but dream to feed my very soul
Just believing, what’s best in life for me?
Unlock the door you’ll find the key
What is more, you’ll never track me down
Too many tried, but never to be found
I’ve shed my destiny, my crown
I’m the man behind the mask
Spinning dreams that never last
I’m the man behind the mask
You can’t look behind the mask
There’s no solution, i always twist and turn
The empty promises, some people never learn
If there’s a hell on earth,
I probably would burn
Ill – gotten flames can’t hurt this sun
Fame and fortune, follow me around
A change of face, a winning smile,
Another crown
You’ll never kick me when i’m down
I can tell you……..
I’m the man behind the mask
Spinning dreams that never last
I’m the man behind the mask
You can’t look behind the mask
After all is said and done
And the lies can’t find the light of day
I’ll be somewhere in the sun
Life holds no fear for me,
I will just do as i please
I’m the man behind the mask
Spinning dreams that never last
I’m the man behind the mask
You can’t look behind the mask
