[English]

Shadow on the wall

Like I was never there

Pull the mask down

Pull the mask down

And escape into the dark

And escape into the dark

And escape into the dark

And escape into the dark

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

The gates of Heaven

A rough and awful thing

Every move is pain

Every move is pain

Don't worry, it's just the night

Don't worry, it's just the night

Don't worry, it's just the night

Don't worry, it's just the night

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

They don't wanna hear what I have to say

Pull the mask down

Pull the mask down and disappear

And disappear
