I’m a sick man, A very sick man

I don’t expect you to understand

There I am - Just look at me

I walk among you in talked of men

And I am power’s most vital friend

There I am - You’re looking at me

But there is no one I have not known

And no one’s vengeance I do not own

There I am - Just look at me

I am there in the back of your mind

I am uncaring, I am unkind

There I am - You’re looking at me

Creep up behind you when you fill with hate

I get excited when you’re irate

I make you crazy, make your conscience numb

I’ve got the anger gonna get you some

Now we think what we’re taught

Shadow self - what we thought

There is no right or wrong

Shadow self - sing your song

You will become me -

There’s a fire in my head can’t put out

You will become me -

There’s a name on my lips can’t pronounce

You will become me -

There’s a stain on my heart can’t get out

You will become me -

And you know the way...

(masques of honor Liebens born

Of darkness brothers we are sworn

You make us strong when we are weak

You are the only truth we seek

You only to forget the hollow

Men we have become your followers

So lead us now to paradise

We’ll never have to wear them)

I beat your children, I drop your bomb

From schoolyard brawls to the Pentagon

There I am - Just look in at me

Give me a conflict, give me a war

Just give me something worth fighting for

There I am - You’re looking at me

Don’t try to keep me bottled up inside

I’m there inside you now you cannot hide

I’ve always been and I will always be

I like the goose-step won’t you dance with me

There are no, "There are no"

Words to say, "Words to say"

Shadow self, "Shadow self"

Nature’s way, "Nature’s way"

Lives in you, "Lives in you"

Lives in me, "Lives in me"

Shadow self, "Shadow self"

Never free, "No one is ever free!"

You will become me -

There’s a fire in my head can’t put out

You will become me -

There’s a name on my lips can’t pronounce

You will become me -

There’s a stain on my heart can’t get out

You will become me -

And you know the way...

We’ll never have to wear them

Masques of goodness and of grace

The blood of angels made to face

The horror of the naked truth

Is only what you make it do

The things you want to complete

The animal that has to eat

The innocent are left to bear

The blame we’ll never have to wear them
