Days before you came
Freezing cold and empty
Towns that changed their name
And a horn of plenty
Days before you came
Counting breaths inside me
Even crack-cocaine couldn't start to hide me
Won't you join me now?
Baby's looking torn and frayed
Join the masquerade
Join the masquerade
Won't you join me now?
Baby's looking to get laid
Join the masquerade
Join the masquerade.
Days before you came
It always seemed enticing to be naked and profane
There is no denying
Days before you came
Thunderbolts and lightning
Each day a brand new game
Each tourniquet colliding
I didn't want you anyway X4
Won't you join me now?
Baby's looking torn and frayed
Join the masquerade
Join the masquerade
Won't you join me now?
Baby's looking to get laid
Join the masquerade
Join the masquerade
Days before you came
Days before you came
Days before you came
Days before you
Days before you came
Days before you came
Days before you came
Days before you
I didn't want you anyway X 4
