[Verse 1:]
I'd like to take this time, just to apologize,
The way you see me now, ain't who I am inside,
Really your character, there wasn't in it for us,
I tried to keep it up.
[Hook 1:]
When I looked in your eyes, tonight,
I saw your heart crystal clear,
And when you look back in mine,
The truth seemed to disappear.
[Chorus:]
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Masquerade [x8]
[Verse 2:]
I said "I loved you" first,
Well "love" is just a word,
Said it so many times,
That it became a blur,
You're not the only one,
I'm sure that hearing it hurts,
All of the pain you had,
I'm the worst.
[Hook 2:]
And in your eyes tonight,
I saw your heart crystal clear,
And when you looked back in mine,
All the lies re-appeared.
[Chorus:]
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Masquerade [x8]
[Bridge:]
Now I can't believe you're telling me,
That you can move on easily,
I thought you really cared for me,
I was wrong, I was wrong,
I should've known my thorn was bitter sweet,
And saw the possibilites of me playing you, while
playing me,
I was wrong, I was wrong,
So I guess it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade.
I guess it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade.
Masquerade [x8]
