Lyrics
Description
Verse 1:
When lights go down, the shadows start to crawl
I stand behind the curtain, feeling small
Smile lacquered like clapboard paint, a hairline crack
Spotlight freckles scatter on the cracked wood floor
Pre-Chorus:
Do they see the man, or only see the play?
Every cue rehearsed, every move obeyed
Chorus:
I'm the man behind the mask
Living lives they wrote for me, a hidden task
Every tear I tuck away, every role I cast
Who am I when the lights go out and echoes pass?
(Who am I?)
Verse 2:
An empty stage smells faint of dust and rain
I bow to rows that keep their faces in the dark
Applause like folded paper—warm then gone from hands
The curtain's hem grazes my shoe; silence stands
Pre-Chorus:
Do they see the man, or only see the play?
Every cue rehearsed, every move obeyed
Chorus:
I'm the man behind the mask
Living lives they wrote for me, a hidden task
Every tear I tuck away, every role I cast
Who am I when the lights go out and echoes pass?
(Who am I?)
Bridge (turning point):
I find a Polaroid with dirt along its frame
A boy with a chipped tooth smiling as he says my name
His laugh is a ledger I owe beyond the stage
So I unpick the seams and write a line for a new page
Final Chorus (variation):
I'm the man behind the mask, the stitches come undone
I took off the mask; the room was empty but I won
Applause was just an echo of the life I used to cast
Now I stand with bare hands, still asking who I am
(Who am I? Who am I?)
Outro:
I'm the man behind the mask — learning how to ask
Who am I? (who am I?)
Who am I? (who am I?)
