Masquerade

Cover my scars with a layer of dust
Lose them in time
With a symphony of lies
I disappear and disguise
What lies beneath
This shell of mine

I am not a monster
Just a man that didn't get it right
A man consumed by darkness
A man dragged from the light
I don't need to know your secret
I don't need to see beneath the mask
Carry on this masquerade
We're all imposters on parade

My hands are tied
My body bruised
Things not what they seem
Demons haunt my days
Terrorize my nights
Ghosts haunt all of my dreams

I am not a monster
Just a man that didn't get it right
A man consumed by darkness
A man dragged from the light
I don't need to know your secret
I don't need to see beneath the mask
Carry on this masquerade
We're all imposters on parade

I am not a monster
Just a man that didn't get it right
A man consumed by darkness
A man dragged from the light
I don't need to know your secret
I don't need to see beneath the mask
Carry on this masquerade
We're all imposters on parade
I can't promise you a future
I can't promise that we'll all be fine
Carry on this masquerade
Imposters on parade
You've got your secrets
I've got mine
