Let Me Wear the Mask

Try to take the beauty out of it all

Like I'm throwin' stones at a stained glass window

And just watchin' it crash and fall

Rainin' upon everyone I know

Hands tied behind your back

Maybe feel like you can't leave

Well, just look for me, baby

Could you do that for me, please?

And I don't even want to ask, but

Let me wear the mask

Never drag a damn thing out of me, oh

Just a heavy sigh when you talk about money

Then you think of me differently

When I look in your eyes, all I see is pity

Hands tied behind your back

Maybe feel like you can't see

Well, just breathe for me, baby

Could you do that for me, please?

And I don't even want to ask, but

Let me wear the mask

Everytime I try to put one down

There's a whole new person caught in the middle

So I think I might listen now

Hands tied behind your back

Maybe feel like you can't breathe

Well, just stop for me, baby

Could you do that for me, please?

And I don't even want to ask, but

Let me wear the mask
