What is it that you see
When you cast a glance toward me
All that is there midst the confusion
Is my mask, my own illusion
Look again, come closer yet
And see an old friend, you've never met

) I note there is an eerie pall
( When at last I let it fall
) This mask you see, I hide behind
So to hide my inner mind
You see this mask and do not fear
A pretty face to draw you near
