Take a step in the rain outside.
Take a breath and explore the night.
The world is yours you won't look back.
Take a risk and prepare to strike.
Take a chance you don't need to hide,
In shadows under smiling masks.
This is your chance to change your future.
Its time to leave the past behind.
Swallow your pride suppress your anger,
To break the chains inside your mind.
Your smiling mask is crying now.
Its smoke and mirrors all along.
You can fool them with your lies
But there is truth inside your eyes
Beyond the secrets that you hide.
You built your walls up carefully
For no one else to see.
One day they will begin to fall.
This is your chance to change your future.
Its time to leave the past behind.
Swallow your pride suppress your anger,
To break the chains inside your mind.
Your smiling mask is crying now.
Its smoke and mirrors all along.
Everyone carries something
A package for themselves.
Everyone needs shelter,
A place to rest their head.
We build our masquerade
we all learn to pretend.
Fake smiles to break the silence
Cover up ourselves.
This is your chance to change your future.
Its time to leave the past behind.
Swallow your pride suppress your anger,
To break the chains inside your mind.
Your smiling mask is crying now.
Its smoke and mirrors all along.
Ever seen somebody suffer?
Hiding under smiling masks.
Ever looked under the surface?
To show the world what lies beneath.
So show yourself what lies beneath!
