Masquerade

It’s overwhelming
I’ve never felt like this before
You’ve entranced me with your radiant eyes
But I cannot come to you
I cannot show you who I am
And if this keeps up I won’t stay sane

So goodbye
Can’t tell you why I’m hiding
The look
In your eyes says you’d do anything for me

Ever since we parted
Ever since we left each other’s arms
It has been a world of dark regret
They say it’s better this way
I couldn’t disagree more with that
My life depends upon your presence

So goodbye
Can’t tell you why I’m hiding
The look
In your eyes says you’d do anything

When will the time be right
For me to cast off this disguise

I can’t keep on
Reading these lines
This theatrical production
Needs to end so we can find
Our love

This is the only way it can be
Here, in my truest form, this is me

I’m so tired of this masquerade
I won’t live my life afraid
