Masquerade

Behind averted eyes
Emotionless
In a web of lies
Forbidden thoughts you keep
Awake you when you sleep
The truth is blind
To your cold deceit
Turning your face away from a truth you’ll never find
Behind this masquerade
Turning your back says much more than words could ever hide
Behind this masquerade
You’ve gone too far
To stop hiding behind this masquerade
A force of evil reigns
As silence stakes its claim
Invisible
As a grieved heart prays
When innocence is lost
Your conscience pays the cost
No sacrifice
Will bring back the past
Playing for time you’ll find tomorrow never comes
Behind this masquerade
Living a lie you’ll soon find what you’ve been running from
Behind this masquerade
You’ve gone too far
To stop hiding behind this masquerade
You’ve gone too far
To stop living behind this masquerade
