The closer you get, the thinner the ice
The cracks begin to appear
If you push it too far, the eggshells will break
And good friends become enemies

Behind the veil of a smile
Darkness takes hold
All reason is extinguished
Behind the veil of a smile
Bitterness ensues
No light of reason shall pass through

Festering in dark corners
Fermenting in the shiraz
The twisted cogs are turning faster
Conspiracy theories gain momentum

Misunderstandings become battles

Behind the veil of a smile
Darkness takes hold
All reason is extinguished
Behind the veil of a Smile
Bitterness ensues
No light shall pass through

Behind the veil of a smile
Resentment takes a tight grip
All reason is extinguished
Behind the veil of a smile
Bitterness ensues
No light of reason shall pass through

Thoughts become twisted, reality slowly disappears
Irrational emotions taking hold
And suddenly with an ill-advised click of the mouse
The touch paper is lit and this time bomb explodes

Friendships lie in tatters
Break the veil, you’ve got to break the veil
Break the veil, you’ve got to break the veil

Behind the veil of a smile
Darkness takes hold
All reason is extinguished
Behind the veil of a smile
Bitterness ensues
No light shall pass through

Break down this veil of a smile
Smash it to pieces
Regain rationality
Break down this veil of as smile
Smash it to smithereens
Regain reality
