Masquerade Lyrics

Swing Out Sisters Masquerade

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 it's 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 that 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
