American I'm completely average living in an above average world
Sleep happily with the worms, your own kind Don't worry about those you've left behind They're better off without you, though they don't know it yet Have fun rotting and know I have no regret I'm glad I'm the one who is causing you to rot Because what you did I've never forgot So sleep happily down there Now you and I have the same hollow stare

Hollow stare
Welcome to a day at the masquerade Everyone wears a mask Everyone knows it's not real but we are showing who we wish we were Everyone has a permeant problem and this is a temporary cure But we will put on mask and dawn an act pretend until it's late Now come we have a reality to fabricate Here comes Madame Olive who is dressed so beautifully But later she will throw up feeling self-loathing's cruelty And Mr James flirts with Lady Mary But ever one know it's Sir Richard he  would rather it be The King and Queen no longer seek each other for comfort They find each other as appealing as dirt Duchess Clover seems to enjoy the attention of many But she really just wants to be noticed by Doc Henry Doc Henry wants to be heard but doesn't want to speak And gets rid of anyone who tries to get in too deep Lord John feels he missed something good in life along the way And Miss Catherine feels like no one will ever ask her to stay But here at the Masquerade they can be who they want to be And during this delusion we are all free

Masquerade
Wait in the wings The angels are going to sing This place is gone but here And though it's so far it's so near A fleeting moment gone so fast In this theater of Stained Glass

Stained Glass
The girl with a mask of lies is chatting with man holding a mask of laughs Both have experienced heart and tragedy but all they say is small chat In walks the lady who smiles as she cries Welcome to the Land of Lies No one is truely honest or real Lie about how you feel, who you love, or even your birth What I really should say is Welcome to Planet Earth

Land of Lies
A girl holds a baby, that isn't hers But that little one represents a lost world He helps heal the hurt left by the worst day And she'll hold him forever to keep that pain away
