Sounds in the attic
See inside the show
Watch as you go
Watch as you go
Trapped in some place
The entity fades
Watch them crawl on me
Claiming redemption
They're coming to your town
There's nothing inside
There's nowhere to hide
Assassination
When the Mask came off
Lurking in the doorway
I saw him hang by the power
Covered in scabs
Covered in scabs
Covered in faceless Masks of men
Assassination
When the Mask came off
See inside the show
Watch as you go
Watch as you go
Trapped in some place
The entity fades
Watch them crawl on me
Claiming redemption
They're coming to your town
There's nothing inside
There's nowhere to hide
Assassination
When the Mask came off
Lurking in the doorway
I saw him hang by the power
Covered in scabs
Covered in scabs
Covered in faceless Masks of men
Assassination
When the Mask came off

Of course, after all is said and done, Eric is really the only one who really knows what he was trying to say.
"Lurking in the doorway
I saw him hang by the power
Covered in scabs
Covered in scabs
Covered in faceless Masks of men"
I wonder... Could this be a reference to Christ, and the way man-made religion tends to cover up his true nature?
Masks are things wear when we don't feel safe... Ie we act 'tough' around others to impress/ fit in etc etc.
I think attic refers to our heads. 'My brain' ie 'see inside'- means look at who I really am.
Assassination section refers to a time when the person took off their mask (ie showed who they truly were, felt safe with someone) and was betrayed, hurt. ie Assassination- part of then was killed by that hurt...
That's my ideas... Estocopath, you're right though... Only Eric really knows! lol
