This MasqueradeAre we really happyWith this lonely game we play? Looking for the right words to say Searching but not finding Understanding anywhere We're lost in this masquerade Both afraid to say we're just to far away From being close together from the start We tried to talk it over But the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear Each time I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try To understand the reasons Why we carry on this way We're lost in a masquerade We tried to talk it over But the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear Every time I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try To understand the reasons That we carry on this way We're lost in a masquerade We could just start over but it's oh, so hard to do When you're lost in a masquerade |
