Mask

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You weren't him, that's what drew me in I'll admit that I fell for it I love the way I felt in your strong arms It felt like I could fall with my whole heart [Pre-Chorus] And I saw what you wanted me to see In your eyes, you were the same as me A mirror, forever, oh, but now I know better [Chorus] I wanted to know you Wanted to show you I could love who you are and who you're not But you couldn't take the mask off I wanted to save you But I couldn't make you Feel safe enough to let your armor drop 'Cause you couldn't take the mask off Take thе mask off [Verse 2] The first time that you raised thе hand In your eyes, I saw a different man Screaming like a stranger into my face Made me wonder who you were in the first place [Pre-Chorus] I wanted to know you Wanted to show you I could love who you are and who you're not But you couldn't take the mask off [Chorus] I wanted to save you But I couldn't make you Feel safe enough to let your armor drop 'Cause you couldn't take the mask off Take the mask off Take the mask off [Bridge] And I still, still love you, always will At least the you I thought I knew [Chorus] I wanted to know you Wanted to show you I could love who you are and who you're not But you couldn't take the mask off I wanted to save you But I couldn't make you Feel safe enough to let your armor drop 'Cause you couldn't take the mask off Take the mask off [Outro] Oh, take the mask off Oh-oh
