You're in the loaded barrel of a gun
Life pulls the trigger and you're done
It's an illusion holding back the veil of fate
In the end the bullet always wins
You can run and hide behind the curtains of your mind
Tell anybody that the mask is really alive
You know that most won't see the smoke behind your eyes
It's dark down there at least you're not alive
Holding onto the paper, it's on fire
Floating on the smoke it takes you higher
There's a rainbow somewhere,but the flash it blinds your eyes
Blindness turns your body into a pyre
You can run and hide behind the curtains of your mind
Tell anybody that the mask is really alive
You know that most won't see the smoke inside your eyes'
It's dark down there at least you're not alive
The colour grey gets greyer every week
Desert nights and daydreams hold the peace
Know the illusion has become a second skin
Suckle up the poison tastes so sweet
You can run and hide behind the curtains of your mind
Tell anybody that the mask is really alive
You know that most won't see the smoke behind your eyes
It's dark down there at least you're not alive
It's dark down there at least you're not alive
It's dark down here
