M*A*S*H - Behind Tge Surface LYRICS

Look into the mirror at night
What do you see?
Is it you or just a pale shadow
shaped by our sick society?
Where right means wrong and yes means no
Where people make up lies in order to please their friends
Instead of getting the wrong ones out of their lives

Are you still listening to me at all?
Your eyes just tell me yes and no
However, its good to have you here by my side
Im strong enough to say those things
I kept in my heart for so long
Waiting for you to free me
and get them with you out of my life

So just run, just hide
But keep the mask and the colours you need
to paint a tear or a smile on your pale face
what ever you like
Cause youll never be the one
Who wakes up in the morning
Wondering why in those dreams when you liked it so much
In the past as a child you playd with toys (and) not with hearts

Do you remember the time when you were young (timeless surrender)?
Your mind was free with no need to justify
Everything you did before the whole word (whole world)
Doesnt it make you sad, make you think
Why you are not the one you used to be (no, no, no)?
of course I know it too, that we didnt stay the same
that there are changes in our lives
But theres a force
And it doesnt allow you to be yourself
See through walls, go behind....

Behind the surface is where I want to go
Oh youll never know why Im really trying so hard to live those things
that meant life to me
Behind the surface is where I want to go
But youll never know, but youll never ever know, never ever know
