"This Masquerade"
Are we really happy with
This lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say?
Searching but not finding -
Understanding anyway
We're lost in this masquerade
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We try to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
Throughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
And no matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
Why we carry on this way
We're lost in this masquerade
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We try to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
We ty to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
We're lost in a masquerade
And we're lost in a masquerade
