System Of The Mind - Behind The Mask Lyrics

Reach out
Lying in pain with a smile in your eyes
Reach down
You know there's a world full of cries

It's hard to see through the mask they display
All that goes, gotta fight every day
You never know what someone's going through
Their happiness might just be a disguise

It's true
Behind the mask, there's a story untold
Struggles and hardships that they tightly hold
Behind the mask, there's a heart that's breaking

A world full of pain they keep on faking
But let's lend a hand and show them we care
Break down the walls and the masks we all wear
Somebody's smile hides so much to tell

Pain behind the eyes, harder to spell
A story yet untold
Can you hear the cry
Through the laughter

They're screaming inside
On the surface, everything seems okay
But inside, the battles won't go away
They're fighting in silence

Don't you understand
The pain they carry, they need a helping hand
Hiding pain behind a smile
It's an art they've mastered

They're breaking underneath, but still
They're moving faster
Behind every smile, there's a story never spoken
Hiding pain behind a smile

Their heart's forever broken
Behind the mask, there's a heart that's breaking
A world full of pain they keep on faking
But let's lend a hand and show them we care

Break down the walls and the masks we all wear
Behind every smile, there's a story never spoken
Hiding pain behind a smile
Their heart's forever broken

Behind the mask, there's a heart that's breaking
A world full of pain they keep on faking
But let's lend a hand and show them we care
Break down the walls and the masks we all wear

Behind the mask
Behind the mask
Behind the mask
Behind the mask
