Masquerade Lyrics by Adelaide

Strong and Brave

2019

[Verse 1]
There are secret places, hidden faces
Things we cannot see
Stories left untold, legends of old
And hidden mysteries
Stand tall, masks fall, but before they hit the ground
I'll say a prayer for you, yes

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't waste my time, waste your life living a lie
Don't dance with the demons that pass you by

[Chorus]
Oh, is my desperate fight alone?
In this masquerade, this masquer-masquerade
(Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 2]
Nothing's as it seems and like a dream
Spins its evil lair
Sent to mesmerize your heart with lies
And try to keep you there
Awake, don't break, I don't wanna see you fall
Into no escape

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't waste my time, waste your life living a lie
Don't dance with the demons that pass you by

[Chorus]
Oh, is my desperate fight alone?
In this masquerade, this masquerade
I want no part in chasing thrones
In this masquerade, this masquer-masquerade
(Oh-yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
(Secret places, things we cannot see)
(Masquer-masquerade)
(Don't dance with the demons—)
(Awake, don't break I don't wanna see you fall, into—)
(Masquer-masquerade)
(Don't dance with the demons—)
Your facade has become your god (Anti faciem, anti faciem)
Oh, your facade has become your god (Anti faciem, anti faciem)

[Chorus]
Is my desperate fight alone? (Anti faciem, anti faciem)
In this masquerade, this masquerade (Anti faciem, anti faciem)
I want no part in chasing thrones (Anti faciem, anti faciem)
In this masquerade, this masquerade (Anti faciem)

[Outro]
(I don't wanna see you fall, into—)
(Masquer-masquerade)
(Don't dance with the demons—)
(Anti faciem, anti faciem)
(Anti faciem, anti faciem)
