The Gold Mask

[Verse 1]
To be born anew
To live and not quite lose
To trust every day
Stay unchanged

[Verse 2]
To be free
And just be
As clear as eyes conceive
To know
What is known
Won't erase

[Verse 3]
Well I say, I say shame
To any given 'morrow crossed

[Chorus]
'Cause I'll get by
Lover, like I do
To haunt again and rise
Where that sun
Meets that rain

Taken by the two's in heart
Lover, I would choose to part again
Fain I, dare not lead
Dare not pale

[Bridge]
And maybe it's easy this way to love

[Verse 4]
When they took his name
His works and robbed of pain
Of his alm and his right to endure

[Verse 5]
In fear of useless slur
I gave of any hollow crossed

[Chorus]
'Cause I get by
Lover, like I do
To haunt again and rise
Where that sun
Meets that rain
Taken by the two's in hearts
Lover, I would choose to part again
Fain I
Dare not lead
Dare not pale

[Bridge]
'Cause tears aren't, tears aren't a grail
And tears aren't, tears aren't for sale
Though I couldn't cry by design
If I tried

[Chorus]
I'll get by
Lover, like I do haunt again and rise
Taken by the two's in hearts
Lover, I would choose to part again and rise

[Bridge]
Maybe it's easy this way to love
Or maybe it's easy this way to give up
