about

Please note that this was written in 2019, prior to covid. Let it be known that when using mask as a metaphor for "masking one's true self in service of others" in songwriting, make sure you don't release the song right as a worldwide pandemic breaks out and all kinds of tinfoil hat wearing jerks see a piece of fabric over their mouth and nose as a colossal infringement on personal autonomy.

lyrics

Am I asleep or am I a dream?
Carved bone mask in silent scream

The mask obscures our voice, the mind dried out
The mask dries out the mind

Bone facade of phallacy
Dismissive rot of sanity

There is no reason here, there is no thought
There is a distant sound the mind forgot
