lyrics

DAY TO DAY DISGUISES

Pondering my own insecurity
Wondering about the reasons why I am the way I am
My permanent and personal insanity
Can I ever come to understand the boy within the man?

Chorus:
Can I be the only one who wears disguises day to day?
I've heard "all the world's a stage," but I don't know what part to play
When I try to play the hero I know I really act the fool
I'm improvising badly ... forgetting all my lines and missing all my cues ...


Trying to make sense of my reality
Perceptions and illusions, truths and lies and make-believe
Questioning my faith and my maturity
Will the fears that haunt my dreams and waking hours never leave?

Often disappointed in humanity
We're think we're far evolved but we've got a long way yet to go
Admitting to my lack of objectivity
I can't be your Fair Witness, or keep my emotions in control

Chorus

Bridge:
I'm not even sure what I'm doing anymore
I don't think I was sure in the beginning
I never really know which is the right way to go
Or if the race I'm running is worth winning ... so I'm


Considering the limits of mortality
It's the gateway to the future that we're destined to pass through
Offering you proof of my sincerity
If it takes laying down my life, then that is what I'll give to you

Chorus
