I'd like to take this time, just to apologize The way you see me now ain't who I am inside Really a character that wasn't in it for us I tried to keep it up, but when I looked into your eyes tonight I saw you heart crystal clear And when you look back at mine The truth seems to disappear Because it was all, it was all, it was all a masquerade Because it was all, it was all, it was a masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade I said I loved you first, but love is just a word Said it so many times that it became a blur You're not the only one I'm sure that hearing it hurts Of all the pain you had I'm the worst in your eyes tonight I saw you heart crystal clear and when you look back at mine All the lies reappear Because it was all, it was all, it was all masquerade Because it was all, it was all, it was masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade Now, I can't believe you're telling me that you can move on easily I thought you really cared for me I was wrong I was wrong I should have known, my fun was bitter sweet And saw the possibilities of me playing you while you're playing me I was wrong, I was wrong So I guess it was all, it was all, it was all a masquerade I guess it was all, it was all, it was a masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade Masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade
