Reintext (Lyrics)
Verse 1
Step to the light on the stage,
Break from the bars of the cage.
Paint on a smile for the crowd,
Hiding the ghost in a shroud.
Turning around in a dance,
Lost in a merciless trance.
Verse 2
Cold is the porcelain skin,
Walling the darkness within.
Gold is the crown that I bear,
Poison is filling the air.
You see the king and the throne,
I am just hollow and lone.
Pre-Chorus
Look in the glass and it cracks,
No way of turning the tracks.
Chorus
The mask I wear – it is made of stone!
The mask I wear – I am all alone!
A theater piece, a holy deceit,
The heart of a slave with a royal beat.
The mask I wear... is all you can see,
While deep in the dark... there is nothing of me.
[Bridge]
Tear it off! Let me breathe!
Show what is hidden beneath!
Outro
Just a device...
Cold as the ice...
The mask... stays... on...

Plaintext
[Intro]
[Soft piano melody in 3/4 time]
[Violins swelling slowly]
[Distant orchestral chime]
[Verse 1]
[Male vocals: intimate and deep]
[Minimalist arrangement: piano and vocals only]
STEP to the LIGHT on the STAGE,
BREAK from the BARS of the CAGE.
PAINT on a SMILE for the CROWD,
HID-ing the GHOST in a SHROUD.
[Cello enters warmly]
TURN-ing a-ROUND in a DANCE,
LOST in a MER-ci-less TRANCE.
[Verse 2]
[Full string section starts]
COLD is the POR-ce-lain SKIN,
WALL-ing the DARK-ness with-IN.
GOLD is the CROWN that I BEAR,
POI-son is FILL-ing the AIR.
[Building tension]
YOU see the KING and the THRONE,
I am just HOLL-ow and LONE.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Orchestra grows louder]
[Timpani rolls building up]
LOOK in the GLASS and it CRACKS,
NO way of TURN-ing the TRACKS.
[Chorus]
[Majestic Orchestral Rock explosion]
[Soaring, emotional vocals]
The MASK I WEAR – it is MADE of STONE!
The MASK I WEAR – I am ALL a-LONE!
A THE-a-ter PIECE, a HO-ly de-CEIT,
The HEART of a SLAVE with a ROY-al BEAT.
The MASK I WEAR... is ALL you can SEE,
While DEEP in the DARK... there is NO-thing of ME.
[Bridge]
[Music drops to a single haunting violin]
[Vocals: intense, building to a peak]
TEAR it OFF! LET me BREATHE!
SHOW what is HID-den be-NEATH!
[Grand orchestral crash: Final climax]
[Outro]
[Soft piano and cello return]
[Vocals: fading whisper, melismatic]
JUST a de-VICE...
COLD as the ICE...
The MASK... stays... ON...
[Last violin note fading into silence]
[End]
