Look in the mirror, who do you see
Where is the man that you used to be
When you turn off the world and turn down the lights
Do you ever wonder who you are tonight
I knew you then, i love you now
You can call me up when it gets you down
Behind the shades there's someone real
Behind your eyes i wonder how you feel
This is me talking to you
There's just one thing i'm asking you to do
You gotta drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
No one knows what you're going through
Whatever it is, i'll be there for you
If you drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
I was there when it all began
I still remember the boy within the man
I understand what it means to run and hide
There's so much that we're holding onto deep down inside
This is me talking to you
The only thing that i want you to do
You gotta drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
No one knows what you're going through
Whatever it is, i'll be there for you
When you drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
Drop the mask
Drop the mask
Let down your guard, open your heart
Unlose your chains, don't be afraid
Drop the mask
Be yourself
Be yourself
Trust someone else
You gotta drop the mask
Let down your guard, oh you gotta drop the mask
Trust someone else
You gotta drop the mask
Where is the man that you used to be
When you turn off the world and turn down the lights
Do you ever wonder who you are tonight
I knew you then, i love you now
You can call me up when it gets you down
Behind the shades there's someone real
Behind your eyes i wonder how you feel
This is me talking to you
There's just one thing i'm asking you to do
You gotta drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
No one knows what you're going through
Whatever it is, i'll be there for you
If you drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
I was there when it all began
I still remember the boy within the man
I understand what it means to run and hide
There's so much that we're holding onto deep down inside
This is me talking to you
The only thing that i want you to do
You gotta drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
No one knows what you're going through
Whatever it is, i'll be there for you
When you drop the mask, be yourself
Drop the mask
Trust someone else
Drop the mask
Drop the mask
Let down your guard, open your heart
Unlose your chains, don't be afraid
Drop the mask
Be yourself
Be yourself
Trust someone else
You gotta drop the mask
Let down your guard, oh you gotta drop the mask
Trust someone else
You gotta drop the mask
