Masquerades

Who are you? It's hard to tell
A sea of masks, what story will you sell?
Kind as heaven, evil as hell
How long will these masks be held?
I can't see anyone unmasked
And never know what I am buying
Eyes must be opened while dancing
to see how deep my partner is lying

Am I dating a princess or was
I deceived by a witch?
You must dance with a mask
Not because of what's beneath
It's not my favorite party
But it's the one I am inside
I must dance as music plays
I have to live inside a lie

Dance! Don't want to but I must
Have you found a mask to wear?
Who's your partner? Dance all night
On masquerades of life
Who are you really inside?
Is there someone beneath this mask??

Will this party finish some day?
Will anyone be able to leave?
Doesn't matter who's beneath
People hiding who's beneath
Hey, who the fuck are you?
It's hard to tell in this big hall
Need blind trust so i can dance
Will those disguises ever fall?

The face beneath the mask
Will it be replaced by a false one?
Will the lie of self-promotion
Remain and leave us here alone?

Who will you dance with?
Take a kiss and dance with the unknown
Fall in love and die for the unknown
