Lemur – Masking Pain lyrics

I project a dark image
to the world showing harshness,
Masking my true emotions,
Concealing what lies within...

Chorus:
Accept not what you see,
thou shalt not know me,
believe not what you hear,
Because I hide the fear.
Look a little closer....

Distorting an imperfect reflection,
Appearance altered to confuse,
can't see the scars of abuse,
Or the broken heart...

Chorus:

Redeined as the outcast,
Forever shrouded in black,
flashing the eerie smile,
But slowly decaying inside....

Chorus:

You shall never penetrate,
the wall of self-defense,
nothing ever being let in,
Everything is shut out...

Chorus:

My passions have been lost,
a heart has turned to stone,
Blackness is my lone companion,
I shalt not know love!
