My Masquerade

A notification lights my screen For a moment, my resolve grows weak I won’t see you, I can’t see you There’s no future left for you and me I thought our hearts had found their way I thought we’d walk the same road someday I never knew that love alone Couldn’t solve what stood between us When I see it for what it is Your road and mine can never run as one While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away Who am I? My reflection starts to fade What do you want? What are you looking for? Your unwavering gaze—I hide away My masquerade It meant too much to call it a game But I never let it carry a name I couldn’t say that it was real I never wanted you to see how I feel I know I may seem composed and cold But there’s an ache I’ll always hold Still, I know the choice I made Was the right one anyway To put it simply, after all Let’s call it a misunderstanding While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away Who am I? My reflection starts to fade What do you want? What are you looking for? Your unwavering gaze—I hide away My masquerade They say that love can conquer all But I don’t believe that fairy tale anymore I have to face reality That’s what matters most to me While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away Who am I? My reflection starts to fade What do you want? What are you looking for? Your unwavering gaze—I hide away My masquerade While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away Who am I? My reflection starts to fade What do you want? What are you looking for? Your unwavering gaze—I hide away My masquerade My masquerade
