Lyrics

Peel Away the mask you're wearing
Walls of flesh are wearing thin
In a trance you find me staring
at the skull beneath the skin
Hypnotized, Caught inside the maze
Mesmerized by it's hallow gaze
Behind the eyes of a lifeless skull
Dwells the mortal truth you can not bend
It's reality will reveal no deception
It only proves that life will surely end
As the flower wilts and dies
Flesh will decay and wash away the lies
See the reaper as he grins
Watch the fire melt away the skin
10,000 skulls rise up fromt the rivers of blood
Drift acroos the ocean to a distant shore
Falling from the sky down into the valleys
Fossils of an old world that's no more
It's the skull beneath the skin
Only thing that's left to call my friend
Skulls, laying in the valley
Skulls, cruching under my feet
Skulls, floating in the ocean
Skulls, skulls, skulls... Falling from the sky
