I Saw the sign - I drew the line
I pondered how the mask defines us
I’ve hidden all my feelings in a vault
I felt like I - should hide not cry
I’m blamed as all the feelings die
She may as well have bathed my wounds in salt

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes

Why blame me for - a life before.
I couldn’t have fun anymore
I never thought that I had done much wrong
I gave support - though she’d purport 
My falsehood in a vocal fraught
With venom that must have been there all along 

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes - negate disguise


Friends never make good lovers
But loves should always be best of friends 
After all of the turmoil
I’m hoping for something that never ends
Something so rare and so perfect
A product of the past for which I’ve made my amends

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes - negate disguise
And you - bring trust - you’ve got me sussed

The Mask That Defines Us

Progressive Metal Guitarist, Drummer, Bassist, and Keyboardist.

Thx for visiting and listening, I am an amateur guitarist, play a little keybord, bass and drums too. I love music.

Prolific musician, author, photographer and oddity.  With influences ranging from the lofi pop of Guided by Voices, the gothic melodrama of Nick Cave, the glam of Bowie and the nakedness of Iggy Pop - this is Marc Freak.  Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe.  An experiment in DIY and lofi.  The odd bum note here, the even odder bum note there.  But with art do we care?

ALTERNATIVE ELECTRONIC Singer-Songwriter Musician and Producer. Welcome to MY FANTASY WORLD. Performing LIVE since May 2024
Piano is my primary instrument, some clarinette,drummer and singer in an all girl beginner level punk band, learning bass, guitar and ukelele!
My compositions and lyrics are expressions of my personality and life experiences. I love punk and electro rock, techno, trance, experimental, groovy and stuff that has no genre.  I have no boundaries in either subject matter or style. Music has consumed my soul and is my driving force in life.
**** Let the Love for Music Rule****
