Welcome to the morning Slip on your mask and get on with your performing Don't let them know that you're alone and you're hurting Don't let them know that your thoughts are disturbing Get on with the show Yeah welcome to the evening Take off your mask cuz you know that they believed it And when they ask, say you're doing just dandy Hide the wounds and the scars in the brandy Get on with the show Your life should be joyful, just flash us a smile Cuz you've been so loyal to see it all through But today it's impossible to keep your façade up And written in marble your doomsday appears You're in need of salvation A hiding place where your soul can be free From the pain and the sorrows, the crowd and the gallows A beacon of light gives you one final plea Final plea The moon assails the day The sun bursts through the gray The living walk as dead And the lifeless find their life instead And though you're in dismay You got to push on anyway Just catch your balance And fall into the cognitive dissonance Welcome to the ashes Set ablaze by the pressure given by the masses The water you need you fear cuz once you'd fallen through The crashing waves overtook and paralyzed you Just say you're alright Welcome to the skyline Nothing really matters in the end Cuz we all die eventually So what's the point of anything The fire has died now, you barely survived now Your demons were this close to snatching your soul Though what happens next if it happens again And the date on your tombstone has too strong a pull You're in need of salvation A hiding place where your soul can be free From the pain and the sorrows, the crowd and the gallows A beacon of light gives you one final plea Final plea The moon assails the day The sun bursts through the gray The living walk as dead And the lifeless find their life instead And when you've lost all hope The King's still on His throne Embrace the madness And fall into the cognitive dissonance The moon assails the day The sun bursts through the gray The living walk as dead And the lifeless find their life instead And when you've lost all hope The King's still on His throne Embrace the madness And fall into the cognitive dissonance
