Masks (2005 Digital Remaster) - Van Der Graaf Generator

Written by：Peter Hammi

He's a man of the past and one of the present

A man who hides behind a mask behind a mask

A clown a fool believing it cool to be down

Or that the game is all about who laughs the last

So he tells all his problems to his friends and relations

Exposes his neuroses to their view

They accept as fact every masochistic mumble of his act

But how could they know what was false and what was true

Sometimes when he wakes

He feels he's walked into a dream

But all it takes

To remind him things are what they seem

Is the belief that the man behind the mask can really dance

Pirouetting smile

He feels himself cavorting

Pierrot for a while

Before aborting

To find relief in the shelter of the dark most telling mask

After all the pantomimes are ended

He peels all the make up off his face

To reveal beneath the tears running all down his cheeks

Alone he opens to the world but it's much too late

He's been left in the end without a face
