Masquerade Ball Songtext
von Mob Rules

You wear the mask of a savior
Redemption or fear
No one knows what′s behind
A masquerade ball
Virtual faces, disguise
And concealed mimicry
Dancing in shadows, reality fades

I hear a whisper

In the flicker of candles
Secrets start to show
The mask you wear so tightly
Keeps the world from what you know

(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Echoes and whispers
(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Glancing and dancing
At the masquerade ball


You wear the mask of a lover
A heart made of gold
Painted smile grins behind
A tale left untold
The mask of a jester
A hero or hoe
Dance of contradictions
Your enchanting show

I see a shimmer

In the mirror's reflection
Yourself starts to fade
The mask you wear so proudly
Hides the choices that you′ve made

(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Echoes and whispers
(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Glancing and dancing
At the masquerade ball

When the music is fading
All masks will come down
In that moment could you find yourself
Or will you drown?


(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Echoes and whispers
(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Do you hear the whispers?
(Who are you) Masquerade ball
(Who are you) Masquerade ball
Glancing and dancing
At the masquerade ball
