Masquerade

theNAME

You should hold my hand, you should
In times of misery
Not increase my pain, not
And leave me suffering
As my loved one

How can you act kind, how
After this great betrayal
And deceive again and deceive
Me and all our beloved
Who are ignorant

Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade

You keep telling lies, you lie
Just to get rid of me
But you seem to fail, you fail
For I am still around

Why don’t you admit, why
You’ve been a selfish bitch
You might gain respect, you might
If you dare to be honest
To our loved ones

Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade

Now I see you’ve been creating
Your own world full of lies and illusions
Cleverly manipulating your gathered
Ones to believe in your beauty

In the time that passed ever since
You have kept the truth carefully hidden
Scared to reveal what’s behind your great
Masquerade and to lose the face they trust

You decline the needs of others
For as long as you enjoy this life

Show them what you have shown me
For they deserve to see your true face
Show them what is underneath
Your masquerade
