Behind the Mask (Mike’s mix, demo) Songtext
von Michael Jackson

All along I had to talk about it
But like a two-edged sword
It cuts you and it stabs me
All along I knew you were a phony girl
You sit behind the mask
And you control your world
One is one, what it do to me?
But you know you′re good, you're nowhere next to me
I can′t just what you do to me
All I know is true, that you daring me, baby

(Now the mask you're wearing)
Heaven must be wary
(Is stoney and staring)
You got me scared, girl
(Lines and tears, age and fears)
Every year, yours are good
(Growing old, passions cold)
You got me scared, girl


(Now the mask you're wearing)
Heaven must be wary
(Is stoney and staring)
You know what you did
(Lines and tears, age and fears)
Every year, na na na
(Growing old, passions cold)
Ey-ey-ey!

You sit around and I watch your face
You try to be the truth
You look for a hiding place
Behind the mask, I know whatcha do to me
I′m watching all your games, but then what I can see

Who do you love?
Is it me?
With you?
I don′t know
Who do you love?
I don't want you
If you can′t answer
You know me!


(There is nothing in your eyes)
There is nothing in your eyes
(That marks where you cried)
But that's the way you cry, girl
(All is blank, all is blind)
All is grand, all is bright
(Dead inside, the inner mind)
Hee-hee, hee hee
(There is nothing in your eyes)
(That marks where you cried)
But that′s the way you cry
Hoo! Uh!
(All is blank, all is blind)
All is bright
(Dead inside, the inner mind)
Eh-eh ey

I walk around, I'm suffering in my doom
When I come to you
You′re sitting in your room
You sit around in the strangest place
So take off the mask, so I can see your face!

Who do you love?
Is it me?
With You?
I don't know
Who do you love, babe?
I don't want you
If you can′t answer
I know you!
Who do you love?

Uh!
Is it me?
With You?
I don′t know
Who do you love?
I don't want you
If you can′t answer
I know you

I don't want to talk about it
I don′t want to talk about it
I don't want to talk about it
I don′t want to talk about it
