Powder Masks by Tiki Black Lyrics
Verse 1. He paints an image of his life With more lies, with more pretending Powder masks spread with a knife Funny isn’t it
Verse 2. He gets out and faces the world His face coloured with the script’s pen He plays his role with his heart curled Till the curtain falls and then
Chorus. The mask tears out Make up tears away It isn’t funny now The clown breathes again
Verse 3. From his choices he tastes the pain Still he smiles and says he’s free While his heart bleeds a bitter rain Funny isn’t it
Verse 4. His life is the fluid that goes With the streams of expectations With the whims of trends his day flows Till the night falls and then
Chorus. The mask lies down And gives his life a rest I guess No more lies now The clown breathes again
Bridge. Will the mask fall as I bend Curtsy of this west-end trend Cut set me free my friend And sound of this act the end
Chorus. The mask tears out And pride tears away It isn’t funny now His tears flow again, His tears flow again cos he’s free
Verse 2. He gets out and faces the world His face coloured with the script’s pen He plays his role with his heart curled Till the curtain falls and then
Chorus. The mask tears out Make up tears away It isn’t funny now The clown breathes again
Verse 3. From his choices he tastes the pain Still he smiles and says he’s free While his heart bleeds a bitter rain Funny isn’t it
Verse 4. His life is the fluid that goes With the streams of expectations With the whims of trends his day flows Till the night falls and then
Chorus. The mask lies down And gives his life a rest I guess No more lies now The clown breathes again
Bridge. Will the mask fall as I bend Curtsy of this west-end trend Cut set me free my friend And sound of this act the end
Chorus. The mask tears out And pride tears away It isn’t funny now His tears flow again, His tears flow again cos he’s free
