Masquerade - Any Given Day

Masks of iron, dirt and gold

Faces hiding, looks so cold

Gilded with the most precious jewel

Masks to cover, masks to fool

Chandeliers and cloaks of black

Beauty dancing back to back

With ugliness and jealousy

Behind the mask no one can see

No one can see — your fuckin' identity

Burning candles on the floor

It feels like you’ve been here before

Cause every night and every day

It’s just another masquerade

Masquerade

Just another masquerade

Tear off your mask

Tear off your skin

And show the world your disgrace

You can’t take off your mask

It has become your only face

What will be left — I ask

When we stop the masquerade

When we stop the masquerade

Burning candles on the floor

It feels like you’ve been here before

Cause every night and every day

It’s just another masquerade

Masquerade

Just another masquerade

Tear off their mask (tear off their mask)

And if it’s still sticking to their face

Tear off their skin (tear off their skin)

And show the world their disgrace

When we stop the masquerade
