Masquerade
The uncertainty of a masquerade
Strangers' smiles
Never seem to fade
Flowing dresses and sequin masks
They wonder who you are
But no one dares to ask
Be someone new
If just for one night
After all, its not even you
Someone with porcelain skin
Red lips, gossamer dress
What a warped world I'm in
Suddenly disguised, people take interest
When I am unknown,
I'm at my best
The hours race by
People come and go
Now, I dont have to try
Everything good must come to an end
Even though being someone else
Was becoming quite a trend
Strangers' smiles

What a warped world I'm in
Suddenly disguised, people take interest

The hours race by
People come and go
Now, I dont have to try
Everything good must come to an end
