Masquerade Lyrics

Masquerade lyrics

(Swing Out Sister)
A thousand words can hide
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
Baba dub ba dub baba dub ba etc...
