Intro
Hajimari wa itsumo
Kono mado no mukou ni
Maboroshi dake ga utsuru
Verse 1
The glass is shining, a perfect display
Every smile is rehearsed for the day
You see the laughter, you see the light
Demo hontou wa...
It's just a shadow hiding the fight
I'm wearing a mask, a fragile Kamen
It keeps me safe, hitori ni naru toki made
Then the paint will crack, the walls will fall down
In the silence, I wear my own crown
Pre-Chorus
You're staring at me, Urayamashii desu ka?
At a painted bliss that fades into dust
Shinjitsu wa kowai, it’s not what it seems
Just a broken soul chasing after false dreams
Chorus
This fragile mask, kono usotsuki na egao
I put it on, every time the sun goes low
You chase the image, you crave what is mine
But behind the curtain, we're crossing the line
Ooh, the reality is cruel
We're all just faking it, breaking the rule.
Verse 2
Mada tarinai, Gōyoku wa yokubou
Hito no mono ga hikari wo mitsukeru
Jibun no motteru takaramono sae
Mienai no, naze?
Kono mijikai jinsei
Mitasarenai kara
You think I have it all, the perfect view
But the things I possess, they are dreamt by you
We envy shadows of the other side
A universal lie where we all try to hide.
Pre-Chorus 2
Look closely now, sono me de tashikamete
The perfect life is just a fantasy state
Kono sekai wa filled with illusions we breed
A perfect sadness in a life that we feed.
Chorus
This fragile mask, kono usotsuki na egao
I put it on, every time the sun goes low
You chase the image, you crave what is mine
But behind the curtain, we're crossing the line
Ooh, the reality is cruel
We're all just faking it, breaking the rule.
Rap Verse
Check the mirror, tell me what you find.
Is it gold or is it just the dust behind?
Anata no shiawase wa data on the feed
A temporary high for a universal greed!
Nani wo motomete iru no? The perfect profile pic?
Losing your own soul to a digital trick!
I see your eyes fixed on the house next door
You got the key to your own, but you’re locking the door!
WAKE UP! Genjitsu wa, it's a bitter pill!
We're all kodoku, standing still on the hill!
Bridge/Build-up
MISENAIDE! Kono hibi!
KOWARETE! Sono egao!
YOU SEE THE LIE, BUT YOU CHOOSE TO STAY BLIND!
THIS IS THE END OF THE MASK I'M WEARING!
WE ARE JUST GHOSTS, Eien ni samayou!
Outro
TAKE IT OFF! Subete wo misete...
Jibun ni naru... THE FADING TRUTH!
Mijikai... Jinsei...
