Lyrics

We all wear a mask -- unremovable and ugly as fuck. And we all hold a grudge -- irrevocable and bitter as hell. Call this what you will, a greener hill to die on, a naive sense of pride. Placing our bets on each other, you and I. Holding our breath under water 'til our eyes burst. You plus I equals a procession of black cars. Them plus you perpetuates a chain of martyrs. A nihilist through and through because I was born a hypocrite just like you. 365 we're all living a lie, but what words rhyme with buried alive? This truly is the year of the gnat and I'll never convince you to take off your mask. If we took this advice and crucified the insincere tonight, we'd all be hanging from nails in our wrists before the sun would show its face. This truly is the year of the gnat but you'll never convince me to take off my mask. Never convince me. Never.
