Can you sing, can you dance, can you play?
Always, always, always, live for today.
Come to the ball.
Dance through the hall.
A glorious day for all to play.
A mask is needed to play this way.
Hide thine face, so you can stay.
Watch them twirl and dance.
Behind your mask, watch them prance.
Their eyes, telling a wishfull story
Of better days, of timeless glory.
Look behind those eyes.
Beneath the mask.
See the lies.
Of which we should not ask.
A masquerade, a party, a grand time for us all
Please, come and dance, have a ball
Love is a dance.
Of exquisite romance.
The warm truth, or a cold lie.
Whatever the hopes, the dreams may die.
Perhaps.
Just perhaps, what you ask?
Might I find happiness behind this mask?
So, won't you come with me?
Hidden, behind your mask you see?
To dance and play.
To laugh and sway.
To live and die, a little more this day.
Come, to the masquerade.
A gaudy ball, a grand parade.
A party, of childrens years.
A twisted gathering, of morbid fears.
A calvacade, of cheerful tears.
A dark, dark party, full of lies.
and so many wasted lives.
