Текст песни The Mask

I have come a long way I’ve met many a friend Who gave to me their hearts, their bread and their wine Into the lower lands Down to the depths of self I have come To discover what’s lying behind The mask My mask It might tear me apart If I see what’s inside my heart My heart The ground is so dank The air is sour in the valley of humiliation I can see him now Coming for me, there will be no negotiation It’s here He’s here Man, he’s ugly as sin Slimy scales are his precious pride Should I go back in retreat? Or do I confront the beast? If I turn and run, he’ll get my gun Better stand and face Apollyon
