Masquerade

Where are you going to hide
Now that your secret's known?
Are you screaming inside?
Are you feeling all alone?

It's all your own fault,
You were nothing but a fake
Hidden behind your own vault,
That was your first mistake.

Pretending to be someone you were not,
Acting day by day,
Lying in whatever slot,
Playing perfect by nature in every way.

You thought you had it all
You thought you had everybody fooled,
From behind your darkened wall
With each and every string you pulled.

Living two lives,
Living a masquerade,
The only desire for which you'd strive
Pretence was your only true trade.
