Chains of subconsciousness bound me to the past
Hate and depression, all this seems to last
Just like a shdow, i can't hide this
I can't run away to the life i miss

I wear a mask every time
Nobody knows whit lies behind
My inner self is cut in two
Nobody knows the hell i'm through

In the claws of destiny
This is the burden of past
It brings you to your knees
This is the burden of past

I wear it on my shoulders, sometimes i break down
The man who stands in front of you is often a false clown

I wear a mask every time
Nobody knows whit lies behind
My inner self is cut in two
Nobody knows the hell i'm through

In the claws of destiny
This is the burden of past
It brings you to your knees
This is the burden of past

The time which lies behind me is sometimes far away
But it has the power to turn my life into grey
The wound deep inside me endanger my present life
But i will go on, this can't bring me down

I wear a mask every time
Nobody knows whit lies behind
My inner self is cut in two
Nobody knows the hell i'm through

In the claws of destiny
This is the burden of past
It brings you to your knees
This is the burden of past
