Stained Glass Masquerade

Is there anyone that fails, Is there anyone that falls,
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small,
Cause when I take a look around, Everybody seems so strong,
I know they’ll soon discover

That I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay
If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it too
So with a painted grin, I play the part again
So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic people, Under shiny plastic steeples, With walls around our weakness, And smiles to hide our pain, But if the invitation’s open, To every heart that has been broken, Maybe then we close the curtain, On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there
Are there any hands to raise
Am I the only one who’s traded
In the altar for a stage

The performance is CONVINCING
And we know every line by heart
Only when no one is watching

Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free, If I dared to let you see
The truth behind the person, That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open
Or would you walk away
Would the love of Jesus
Be enough to make you stay

Well if the invitation’s open
To every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain
On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone that fails, Is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small
