An urgent sense of regret and Now I'm caught in the zone My mind arrested by fear and So I go it alone A metamorphosis conceived By the early light Distraction of self comes out In the night Fabricated I'm constructed of Opinions and lies Which only leads to failing In my own eyes Sinking to the depths while I'm masking what's inside A bittersweet existence and I cause my own demise
And I wonder if you've ever seen Life through the eyes of One who Understands what it means To be free Freedom comes when you can Let it go But I guess you wouldn't know
It's such a shame the game You play Congratulations your invited To the masquerade I'd like to know what lies Behind the mask you've made
My mind reflects the meaning To things that are jumbled Resting on the first making Time to rehearse Intricate persona controlled Animation Visually impaired clinging To pain immersed Mentally scarred cosmetics Dripping down Life in forward motion exist In reverse Instable at the seams trying To conform Trapped in a maze while sin Is at its worst
And I wonder what your Gonna do When your disguise comes Crashing down And yourself comes shining Through Are you gonna hide your face Or let it rest in the hands Of grace
Don't hide your face in the Masquerade Don't play the game it's A masquerade
