lyrics

Bright blue skies turn to blackened cloud
Good things in life are obscured by the shroud

Half of my life I have worn a mask
Day by day, no easy task
Half of my life I've put on a face
All in the name of faking peace

If I put on a good face, you just think it's fake
If I don't, well, you can't relate
Some days I can't be bothered to hide from my fate
If I don't, well, you can't relate

Bright blue skies turn to blackened cloud
Good things in life are obscured by the shroud

Half of my life I have worn a mask
Day by day, no easy task
Half of my life I've put on a face
All in the name of faking peace

If I put on a good face, you just think it's fake
If I don't, well, you can't relate
Some days I can't be bothered to hide from my fate
If I don't, well, you can't relate

Every day war wages on
Inside my mind the pull is strong
Every day the battle continues
Always feel like something is wrong

Half of my life I have worn a mask
Day by day, no easy task
Half of my life I've put on a face
All in the name of faking peace
