Lyrics
Black Is the Mask
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.
In the guides of innocence, a shroud of deliverance
We await our turn, so eager are we to learn
Guilty by circumstance, you steal-our every chance
Cut the breath of life, cut deeper than any knife
Time and time again pointing out our sins
Into our very hearts you tear each soul apart
Hopeless are our lives, engineering our demise
Foolish is our trust, you crush us to dust
Darkness-has its holds, we're slaves-into the void
Victims stands in line, for the eternal parasite
Time and time again pointing out our sins
Into our very hearts you tear each soul apart
Black the mask you wear
Black the thoughts you share
All do suffer, none you spare
Black the mask you wear
Total genocide, for us to question why
We are turning cold, you have taken hold
Black the mask you wear
Black the thoughts you share
All do suffer, none you spare
Black the mask you wear
Forever and a day we become your prey
This your only quest, disguised behind the mask
You take but never give, haunting those who live
Master of your plan, death that you command
Black the mask you wear
Black the thoughts you share
All do suffer, none you spare
Black the mask you wear
