Man Behind the Mask - Praying Mantis

You can’t see me, I live behind these walls

Like to escape, but dream to feed my very soul

Just believing, what’s best in life for me?

Unlock the door you’ll find the key

What is more, you’ll never track me down

Too many tried, but never to be found

I’ve shed my destiny, my crown

I’m the man behind the mask

Spinning dreams that never last

I’m the man behind the mask

You can’t look behind the mask

There’s no solution, I always twist and turn

The empty promises, some people never learn

If there’s a hell on earth,

I probably would burn

Ill — gotten flames can’t hurt this sun

Fame and fortune, follow me around

A change of face, a winning smile,

Another crown

You’ll never kick me when I’m down

I can tell you…

I’m the man behind the mask

Spinning dreams that never last

I’m the man behind the mask

You can’t look behind the mask

After all is said and done

And the lies can’t find the light of day

I’ll be somewhere in the sun

Life holds no fear for me,

I will just do as I please

I’m the man behind the mask

Spinning dreams that never last

I’m the man behind the mask

You can’t look behind the mask
