We are not who we say we are We are not who we claim to be These are masks that we hide behind A mask that hides the face beneath The fear has come in shadows Of looming circumstance We'll barricade these walls with spikes In vein it has advanced Black crashes into white Gray lines now drawn in front of me It makes it hard to see Makes it hard to believe Only see what we already know Only know what we felt to be These walls will never Serve as shelter Only barriers to light We are not who we say we are We are not who we claim to be These are masks that we hide behind A mask that hides the face beneath Wars are fought In light of perspective Blood is shed to keep the locks on our door Our biggest fears Are inches from our faces Our world will unravel We're just one knot away This world will unravel We dress ourselves In such elaborate masks To try and keep shape To faces we have drawn This world will unravel.
