Songtexte Mask - OAU

It seems to me a righteous remedy to rectify reality
Is a dream that can't be beat
Cradled fears and tears that fall on wheels and gears turning silently
While the mind is fast asleep

Carving away a new now
As time is running out
Craving calming kindness
Stead of broken blindness
All my selfish needs
Have put me on the brink

Where is the courage that you feared, my friend?
Where is your pretty soft voice when pain is bellowing?
Like a kite
Trade the brilliance for the night

Build a life to be a man caught inside the hourglass of life
Falling with the sands
Clear away a patch of mind to find a barren landscape reaped with tears
Streaking through my hands

I'll be the sun that shines so bright
You'll be the moon that brings the night
But keep your distance, all my peaceful rays will burn your rage away
And change all that you've never known

Where is the courage that you feared, my friend?
Where is your pretty soft voice
When pain is bellowing like a kite?
Trade the brilliance for the night

Separation's grasp on simple conversation will break the day
Darkening the room
And all you see is clouds, you don't know where you are
Or will you find a way to throw away your gloom

But I'm in the middle of a tale
Wandering through the veil
Contagious pain will bring me down
The side effects of a single frown you made from disenchanted words

Where is the courage that you feared, my friend?
Where is your pretty soft voice, when pain is bellowing like a kite?
Trade the brilliance
For the night

Where is the courage that you feared, my friend?
Where is your pretty soft voice when pain is bellowing like a kite?
Trade the brilliance for the night
Trade the brilliance for the night
