Текст Mallory Trunnell — The Mask

You told me I was not invisible.
You lied.
I said with you I’d be invincible.
So did I.
Why do we pretend when there’s nothing to defend?

You told me that I would find it someday.
Someday’s gone.
I said that you would meet that certain someone.
Someone’s wrong.
What happened on that night
to make it seem so right?

I don’t think that you have a right to tell me what to feel.
That’s not your jurisdiction and it doesn’t help me deal
To have you say you’re there but you’re not anywhere
And I don’t think you dare to show me that you care
And it’s not fair.
What’s under the mask that you wear?

She did to you what you always try to do to me.
So when you look to me for help I don’t know what to think.
She may have piercing eyes and pretty hair
But what you really need it really isn’t there.
You have got to know that I won’t wait around forever.
I don’t think that you see what you do to me.

But I don’t think I have a right to tell you what to feel
That’s not my intention, I just want to help you deal.
And I may not have piercing eyes, a tiny waist or pretty hair,
But at the end of the day I will be the one who’s really there
And you don’t have to love me ‘cause that would not be fair.
Just let me know the real you
That hides under the mask that you wear.

Whenever I see you, see you smile, see you sad —
I get a feeling like I never thought I’d have.
I try not to notice when you pretend to forget I exist,
But then I stumble, I crumble and I fall.
If I can’t have you I don’t want no one at all.

Just when I think that I can finally pull away
You come around again and ask me how was my day.

Why do you pretend when I’m willing to defend?

But I guess that I don’t have a right to ask you
what you feel…
