From the recording A Fool There Was

Lyrics

Who's that?
I don't recognize him..
That's..not.. my.. face!

I don't know you
That ain't me
I don't know you
Go away!

After all these years..
There's nothing left..
There's nothing left..

Delusion’s setting in
Engage the Facade
Filtered and fabricated
Maintain the mirage
Never let them linger
On the sham that’s on display
Never let them see the effigy that’s dying in the frame

Of Dorian Gray - Dorian Gray

Well, lightning strikes but there’s no thunder
I’m not getting any younger
Chained in vain to what lies under
I stare into the truth

Frozen in disbelief
Burned into my mind
The cracks and peels of life
All the tell tale signs
And when I curse the mirror
Well the mirror curses me

I’m just a parlor trick..
Tragic
Fiction
Toxic
Everything’s a lie
Like it or not
I’m running on fumes
In a room with no way out
Just stuck
And I may never see the sun again

Can’t stay in this frame of mind
I want out
Let me out NOW!

The Real McCoy is always
Up against the wall
Cornered and covered up
Feeling 2 feet small
Don’t ever let them linger
On the sham that’s on display
Never let them see the effigy that’s dying in the frame

Of Dorian Gray - Dorian Gray

Yeah, lightning strikes but there’s no thunder
I’m not getting any younger
Chained in vain to what lies under
I stare into the truth

No, that’s not my face.
That’s not Dorian Gray.
