[Verse 1] Step by step, I enter the world of shade, Where faces hide beneath passions' masquerade. A spark within the eyes, but stay the course, In search of you, but where's the source? [Chorus] Masks and shadows stand between us both, Blurred lines lead us deeper, quelling growth. In crowds of strangers' arms, we lose the thread, How can we keep our love from fading ahead? [Verse 2] Glances glide, touches burn like fire, You walk away, leaving me to tire. Jealousy and pain grip tight my chest, But I can't look away, not even to rest. [Chorus] Masks and shadows stand between us both, Blurred lines lead us deeper, quelling growth. In crowds of strangers' arms, we lose the thread, How can we keep our love from fading ahead? [Bridge] [Electric guitar solo] [Transition] In the silence of the night, I seek reply, But only echoes of past days drift by. Your smile fades away into the smoke, Alone I stand, in this loud world's yoke. [Chorus] Masks and shadows stand between us both, Blurred lines lead us deeper, quelling growth. In crowds of strangers' arms, we lose the thread, How can we keep our love from fading ahead? [Outro] Returning home beneath the cold night's glow, In a lover's embrace, I seek answers slow. Perhaps the dawn will grant us one more chance, But now I drown in silence, lost in trance. [guitar solo] [end]
