about

The track that inspires the album artwork, it's quite an enigmatic tune.
What is going on beneath the mask. Often I have no idea myself. But I guess that is the point...

lyrics

Living in dream, life's not what it seems
I think I've seen your face before
I think I've seen your face before
The mirror staring back at me
Seeing things that I don't see
I think I've seen your face before but I just can't place it
I took the poison just to wake me up
Drinking from a paranoid cup
Bloodshot eyes beneath this devil disguise
Gonna turn the music up, turn the music up
Feeling kind of shitty dressing for the city
Laughing through the lies telling all the girls they're pretty
Living in the shadow of a fallen man
And I just can't face it
I'm the man behind the mask
The man behind the mask
The man behind the mask
If you lie with me
We'll be spinning around in ecstasy
So Welcome To The Ball.....
I'm the man behind the mask
The man behind the mask
The man behind the mask....
