I took off my mask that night and bared my teeth in your face You saw something else living under my skin The wolf with no thought of disgrace I know I know some things you must never confess I drop to the ground like a bird hit by gunshot Just like Hermann Hesse I stood by the theatre door knowing it had to begin I was shaking down to my core knowing I had to go in
I know I know some things I cry as the angels confess I left my identity back in the theatre Just like Hermann Hesse You saw my precious mask falling from my face I stood naked in front of you The wolf with no thought of disgrace I know I know some things you must never confess You chose the spirit I chose the flesh Just like Hermann Hesse Just like Hermann Hesse
