Time has passed
Since my youthful ways
Showed my heart
Gave my game away
Now this mask
Gives me means to be
Anyone
That I need to be
So beware
When you ask of me
What you want to hear
For I will deceive.

In self defense
My self expense
This seventh sense
Might snap your neck
As these instincts
Don't let me think

This chain reacts
Twist til' it snaps
And all is wrecked
Protect yourself

I'll tell you once
And then no turning back
No turning back

So you'll stay
Like the others did
Til' I show that face
That I use to rid
Myself of
Any sign of pain
Til' you're gone
And it all starts again

In self defense
My self expense
This seventh sense
Might snap your neck
As these instincts
Don't let me think
Pushed past the brink
Evil reacts
Into relapse
This chain reacts
Twist til' it snaps
And all is wrecked
Protect yourself
My heart is hell
I'll tell you once
And then no turning back
No turning ba
