Take my hand then wipe my brow forgiveness is the key I'm not sure what I'm doing now it all feels the same to me I climbed up to the highest hill then tripped and flipped and fell I took a chance on a certain **** then danced straight into hell fires burned my frazzled mind cold winds fanned the flames I searched for treasure I've yet to find whilst playing them silly games sometimes I often lose myself riding on the crest of a wave it's not much fun sitting on a shelf when it's loving that one does crave perhaps one day I'll get it right perhaps one day I'll smile perhaps one day I'll fight the fight then walk on up the aisle inside my heart is weeping blood it's written in my eyes and as I'm drowning in the mud I'll drop my weak disguise

Dropping The Mask
Take my hand then wipe my brow forgiveness is the key I'm not sure what I'm doing now it all feels the same to me I climbed up to the highest hill then tripped and flipped and fell I took a chance on a certain **** then danced straight into hell fires burned my frazzled mind cold winds fanned the flames I searched for treasure I've yet to find whilst playing them silly games sometimes I often lose myself riding on the crest of a wave it's not much fun sitting on a shelf when it's loving that one does crave perhaps one day I'll get it right perhaps one day I'll smile perhaps one day I'll fight the fight then walk on up the aisle inside my heart is weeping blood it's written in my eyes and as I'm drowning in the mud I'll drop my weak disguise
