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.
You should hold my hand, you should
In times of misery
Not increase my pain, not
And leave me suffering
As my loved one
How can you act kind, how
After this great betrayal
And deceive again and deceive
Me and all our beloved
Who are ignorant
Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade
You keep telling lies, you lie
Just to get rid of me
But you seem to fail, you fail
For I am still around
Why don’t you admit, why
You’ve been a selfish bitch
You might gain respect, you might
If you dare to be honest
To our loved ones
Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade
Now I see you’ve been creating
Your own world full of lies and illusions
Cleverly manipulating your gathered
Ones to believe in your beauty
In the time that passed ever since
You have kept the truth carefully hidden
Scared to reveal what’s behind your great
Masquerade and to lose the face they trust
You decline the needs of others
For as long as you enjoy this life
Show them what you have shown me
For they deserve to see your true face
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade
