HIDE
YOUR
MASK!!

((Chorus))
Peel away the paint
Undergo the change
Remove the color,
All the jewels
Take away the markings
TAKE OFF YOUR MASK

You've hidden behind it
For far too long
Labeled yourself
Unlike the rest
Social suicide attempt
To change yourself
Make them seem
Like the minority

((Chorus))

As I lay you
Down to sleep
I pray to no one
Your mask I reap
I've sewn it tight
Into your skin
Molded your mask
Into self hate
Into sickness
Into my image

((Chorus)) x 3
