Lyrics
Masquerade
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm living in a masquerade and I
I grew up in a time that was quite aimless
No one told me where to turn but they
Told me, boy, the fire would burn but it's painless
They told me what was right and wrong and they
Harped upon it much too long for my taste
They tried to tell me where to go and don't
Ever let your feelin's show it's such a waste
Oh, it's a masquerade
Oh, it's a masquerade
I'm living in a masquerade and I
I'm noticing that everyone feels blameless
Preparing for the fight ahead, will
I come out alive or dead or nameless?
They told me how it used to be
Expecting everyone to see through their eyes
They tried to tell me where to go and don't
Ever let your feelin's show, it's such a waste
Oh, it's a masquerade
Oh, it's a masquerade
