Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Wake up Paint the same old face Smile lines made of cracked white tape Hold my breath in the bathroom light Practice "I'm fine" till it sounds like life Every room I’m the saving grace Cheap costume over empty space They want gold from a rusted frame I'm just dust in a borrowed name [Chorus] It’s hard to hide behind this mask Concrete skin that starts to crack You want the world I barely last Under the weight of what I lack You see a storm I’m just a match You call me strong I’m splitting fast It’s hard to hide behind this mask Behind this mask [Verse 2] You clap when I survive the show Don’t stay long when the curtains close In my chest It’s a quiet room Just old echoes and heavy fumes You stack dreams on my shaking hands Porcelain on a paper stand I keep folding till the edges bleed Can’t be everything you say I am [Chorus] It’s hard to hide behind this mask Concrete skin that starts to crack You want the world I barely last Under the weight of what I lack You see a storm I’m just a match You call me strong I’m splitting fast It’s hard to hide behind this mask Behind this mask (hey!) [Bridge] What if I fall Right in front of you? Would you still call This breaking "beautiful"? If I let go Of the parts you choose Would there be anything Anything left of me and you? [Chorus] It’s hard to hide behind this mask Concrete skin that starts to crack You want the world I barely last Under the weight of what I lack You see a storm I’m just a match You call me strong I’m splitting fast It’s hard to hide behind this mask Behind this mask Behind this mask (It’s hard to hide) Behind this mask

rock, Stadium-sized modern rock with 808s and sub-heavy bass under crunchy guitars. Male vocals start intimate over sparse drums and bass hits, then explode into a massive, shouted chorus with gang vocals. Verses stay tight and rhythmic; chorus widens with octave guitars and soaring harmonies. Bridge strips to vocal and low-end pulse before a final, anthemic chorus with extra ad-libs and drum fills., emotional
