White Masque
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze

Surreal
With my head abouve the water,
I can breathe to stay alive.
But I'll try a littler harder,
If you want me to survive.
Pre-Chorus
Won't somebody tell me,
How I got to this stage-
When consequence is inconsequential,
And staring in the spotlight,
Is better than real life.
Chorus
It's been surreal, how do you feel,
When the seas part before your eyes?
It's just so real, how does it feel
When the starts that you follow die?
With my head above the water,
I could drivet along, beyond the tides.
But I can try a litle harder,
If you help me to reach the other side.
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
It's been surreal, how do you feel,
When the colors have left you behind?
It's just so real how does it feel,
To have left yourself behind?
