I put on this old mask of mine
I write the lines in my mind
I play along, at least I try
My performance is a shroud
My imperfection not allowed
I was taught to fight, not to cry
Tied into a frame I don’t belong in
Still so far away from the world I see
Time is on my side when I am dreaming
I’m incompatible with reality
Confidence is beautiful
and influence the greatest goal
I learned to bleach the bloodstains
I’ve been told how to be a man
but no-one knows who I really am
I live inside my diary
Tied into a frame I don’t belong in
Still so far away from the world I see
Time is on my side when I am dreaming
I’m incompatible with reality
I want to write another role for me,
another take on reality
I want to write another role for me,
a better take on reality
Tied into a frame I don’t belong in
Still so far away from the world I see
Time is on my side when I am dreaming
I’m incompatible with reality
