Behind The Mask

Michael Jackson, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Chris Mosdell

Lyrics taken from Greg Phillinganes LP "Pulse"

All along I had to talk about it
Like a two edged sword, he touched you
And it stabs (me)
All along I knew you were a phony girl
You sit behind the mask and you control your world

Yesterday he held you in his arms
But when I'm holdin' you I feel its bitter charms
I can't judge what you're doin' to me
You camouflage the truth, indulge your fantasy

CHORUS:
Who do you love?
Is it me?
Is it him?
I don't know!

There is nothing in your eyes
But that's the way you cry
All is grand, all is bright
You're just studying my mind

Was I invited to your masquerade?
Well, the party's over so now take off the face
You say you love, but it's hard to see
'Cause when you're in his arms
You're throwing rocks at me

CHORUS

There is nothing in your eyes
But that's the way you cry
All is grand, all is bright
You're just studying my mind

I walk around, I'm sufferin' in my doom
When I come to you, you're sittin' in your room
The truth in you I have long to trace
So take off the mask so I can see your face

CHORUS
