The Gold Mask

To be born anew
To live and not quite lose
To trust every day
Stay unchanged
To be free and just be
As clear as eyes can see
To know what's known
Won't erase

I say, I say shame
To any given borrowed cross

'Cause I get by
Lover, like I do
Just fall again and rise
Where that sun
Beats that rain
Taken by the tunes
In hearts
Lover, I would choose
To part again say I
Dare not leave
Dare not pale

Maybe it's easy this way to love...

When they took his name
His works and robbed of pain
Of his own
And his right to endure

In fear of useless sun
I gave of any hallowed cross

'Cause I get by
Lover, like I do
Just fall again and rise
Where that sun
Beats that rain
Taken by the tunes
In hearts
Lover, I would choose
To part again say I
Dare not leave
Dare not pale

'Cause tears aren't, tears aren't a grail
And tears aren't, tears aren't for sale
Oh, I couldn't cry by design
If I tried

(Get by)
Lover, like I do
Fall again and rise
Taken by the tunes
In hearts
Lover, I would choose
To part again and rise

Maybe it's easy this way to love
Or maybe it's easy this way to give up
