Behind The Tracks: Hunter Alive - The Masks We Wear (Single) (2022)

The Masks We Wear is a "f*ck you" to people who tear others down for being "different".

Hunter Alive, "The Masks We Wear" lyrics:

Unable to adapt, to the ever growing dark

Everything is scary, afraid to embark

Your eyes just won't adjust, you need to show your bark

Black and white gives way to blindness, when the contrast isn't stark

I see you cringe inside your shell

To see me enter the world

Must put you in hell

Grotesque and ugly

It stings your eyes

Back off

Step away

Stop acting like an animal

Before someone puts you down

You can burn on your own cross

But you're just another clown

I see you cringe inside your shell

To see me enter the world

Must put you in hell

Grotesque and ugly

It stings your eyes

Do I make you feel afraid

When I enter your world

When I pop that bubble

Are you scared

Do I make you cry

When I crush your world

When I break that facade

And you're the ugly one

God you reek

Maybe you're the freak

Your words draw blood

And mark flesh like arrows

Yet we're branded peculiar

Take a good look in the mirror

Yeah I'm a fucking freak

And that's okay
