Can you hear me?

I'm scared of losing myself

Can you hear me?

I'm scared of losing myself

I can feel the pressure on my heart

For years confined in this chest

I slowly mask myself among this collection of faces

Numb and emotionless

Look in the mirror

All I see is an aching and broken soul

A cracking reflection

A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections

Don't tell me how to think, I'm tired to the bones

The bottled up rage that could never be shown

I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked

I'm sorry that your game is over now

I am out of control, I am running free

I cut the strings imprisoned myself in me

I keep the mask to remind me to always move on

To follow my heart

All my life I've been living in shackles

No one could set me free and bring me back to what I truly am

Isolated in darkness with this hole in my soul

I fear of the deepest of empty minds

But I've survived through this mess

Must one be cruel to live, to walk and to breathe in this world?

I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked

I'm never gonna wear the smile that you forced me to no more

Look in the mirror

And all you'll see is an aching and broken soul

A collection of faces that you hide behind every single day

Look in the mirror

All I see is an aching and broken soul

A cracking reflection

A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections

No I won't suffer

Bring me back to what I truly am

When I finally am free to walk on my feet

Stand up, hold on and I will wait for you

No I won't suffer

Bring me back to what I truly am

When I finally am free to walk on my feet

Stand up, hold on and I will wait for you

Free yourself

Open your eyes

We can get through this, take off your mask

Free your soul

Open your mind

We can get through this, take off your mask

Open your eyes
