Lyrics

Mascarade
Smiles, laughs lie all around
They emanate and flow
Emancipate and contemplate
Round and round we go
Feel electric cross the air
The atmosphere aflare
Not but a moment after all
And life will take you there
(Ohhhh oh whoa whoa)
I hesitate ensemble
I stand can't move my feet
I look off towards the water
Try to peer, find what to see
I've been watching as it moves
Seems fluid with no shape
Yet all along find consolation
On melancholy traips
Find faith in no belief
Find errors cross the mind
There's no fathoms borne from deeper scorned
From now through end of time
(Ohhhh oh whoa whoa)
In the shadows does appear
Off at edges does abide
Fore the desperate reach of solace found
Beckoned out from where I hide
And I hear it say
When you live in the life
That you know you should be
Far away from the edge
Far from reality
There's a mask you will wear
At the ball you attend
Masquerade at the start
All alone at the end
Smiles pale and plastic
Stern across the eyes
Vacant stares and if you dares
The truth behind the lies
There's nothing left to ponder
While living life for self
Stay dead inside, enjoy the ride
Remain somebody else
When you live in the life
That you know you should be
Far away from the edge
Far from reality
There's a mask you will wear
At the ball you attend
Masquerade at the start
All alone at the end
(Ohhhh oh whoa whoa)
Hide your face
(Ohhhh ohhh ohhhh)
Hide your eyes
(Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh)
Leave a mark
(Ohhhh ohhh ohhhh)
In disguise
(Ahhhhhh oh whahhhh)
And in the darkness of your soul
Shall you reside, shall you behold
The truth forever out of reach
Do what you're taught do what you're told
And in the future stand you shall
Pon an altar made of ash
While bemoaning all the life not lived
How you can't get it baaaaaaack
(Yeah!)
When you live in the life
That you know you should be
Far away from the edge
Far from reality
There's a mask you will wear
At the ball you attend
Masquerade at the start
All alone at the end
Smiles, laughs lie all around
Round and round around we go
We keep dancing in the darkness
Where they all fall no one knows
