The Masquerade Songtext
von Different Stories

I′ve been searching
Looking for the real you
But all I found inside was a soul
A shell, a hollow
That is also what who you used to be

Every single day

Every fucking way
I tried to make you better
Make you smile again
Tried to contain the poison in my veins
Tried to contain the power in my strength
Tried to contain
Tried to contain
What I could even be


As I wait for your sake
All your heart out
But you don't seem to see
As I pray
I have prayed
That you will change
Don′t stay the same way

As I wait for your sake
All your heart out
But you don't seem to see
As I pray
I have prayed
That you will change
Don't stay the same way

All I wanted
All I ever asked
Was a better man, a better friend
Beneath the skin that consumes you
All I ever asked
Was a better man, a better friend
Beneath the skin that consumes you

How do you feel
When even your own blood can′t look at you?
This is the masquerade


All I ever asked
Was a better man, a better friend
Beneath the skin that consumes you
All I ever asked
Was a better man, a better friend
Beneath the skin that consumes you

We hate you
From the bottom of our hearts
We hate you
From the bottom of our hearts
We hate you

From the bottom of our hearts
We hate you
From the bottom of our hearts
We hate you
From the bottom of our hearts
We hate you
From the bottom of our hearts
