Man With A Thousand Faces
Unveiling Shadows: The Enigmatic Tale Behind 'Man With A Thousand Faces'
Lyrics
The man with a thousand faces on
The person referred to has a multitude of personas or identities.
Where did he find them no one wants to know
The origin of these faces is unknown and undesirable to discover.
Left alone hid in the dark an empty room the mirror on the wall
Isolated in darkness within an empty room, facing oneself in a mirror.
A secret face you will not show I will not show you hidden from the world
A concealed identity that won't be revealed, hidden from public knowledge.
Bought to life but on a stranger nothing stranger there's nothing stranger
Created or brought to life but with an unusual and unfamiliar nature.
The man a thousand faces on
Reiteration of the individual with numerous faces.
The man a thousand faces on
Continued emphasis on the person with a myriad of identities.
The boy who has never dreamt before his mind left blank from dusk til dawn
A person who has never experienced dreams, with a blank mind from day to night.
Doesn't know what people talk the mind it walks a visitor at night
Lacks understanding of social communication, with a wandering mind that visits at night.
And tonight the full moon rises 5th time rises he opens up his eyes
Under the influence of the full moon for the fifth time, opening eyes to perceive surroundings.
To see a man with shifting faces staring at just staring at him
Observing a person with constantly changing identities staring back at him.
The man in the mask

And tells you to kill

The man a thousand faces on
Reiteration of the person with myriad faces.
The man a thousand faces on
Continued emphasis on the individual with numerous identities.
The man in the mask

Opens the door
Opens a door again, possibly symbolizing a repeated opportunity or revelation.
He hands you the knife

And tells you to kill
