Screaming Trees - Girl Behind The Mask Lyrics
Well clouds and I see a shapePretty girl through the night and dayRun around fast awayI pass the shadows where I stayLong, long hair and I'm not thereAnd when the wind dissolves the cloudsThe street light girl is the only witnessThe girl behind the maskShe's the one who never has to ask, yeahWith magic pouring from her eyesThere's nothing she can't recogniseMakes me want to understandMakes me feel like melting blackWhen your the last flash and time stands stillI ask what if all I could recallHad never been in the dream that she could seeGirl behind the maskShe's the one who never has to askShe reaches through your disguiseIt's too late - you never realisedAnd I never realisedUp the stairs a picture's waitingIn my room she might be waitingWe're baptised still getting blind in the darknessIf I get back to her I'd walk away into the forestAnd then I'm thinking 'where can I go Lord?'Girl behind the mask is the oneWho never has to askShe's reaching through your disguiseIt's too lateYou never realised, you never realised[Please don't, please don't, please don't]
