Mask
[Verse 1]
You weren't him, that's what drew me in
I'll admit that I fell for it
I love the way I felt in your strong arms
It felt like I could fall with my whole heart
[Pre-Chorus]
And I saw what you wanted me to see
In your eyes, you were the same as me
A mirror, forever, oh, but now I know better
[Chorus]
I wanted to know you
Wanted to show you
I could love who you are and who you're not
But you couldn't take the mask off
I wanted to save you
But I couldn't make you
Feel safe enough to let your armor drop
'Cause you couldn't take the mask off
Take thе mask off
[Verse 2]
The first time that you raised thе hand
In your eyes, I saw a different man
Screaming like a stranger into my face
Made me wonder who you were in the first place
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted to know you
Wanted to show you
I could love who you are and who you're not
But you couldn't take the mask off
[Chorus]
I wanted to save you
But I couldn't make you
Feel safe enough to let your armor drop
'Cause you couldn't take the mask off
Take the mask off
Take the mask off
[Bridge]
And I still, still love you, always will
At least the you I thought I knew
[Chorus]
I wanted to know you
Wanted to show you
I could love who you are and who you're not
But you couldn't take the mask off
I wanted to save you
But I couldn't make you
Feel safe enough to let your armor drop
'Cause you couldn't take the mask off
Take the mask off
[Outro]
Oh, take the mask off
Oh-oh
