The Masquerade Songtext
von zeedfilippo

While the planets spin in madness through the dark
We are chasing shadows, searching for a spark
Just a brief illusion on a cosmic stage
Writing bleeding words upon a silent page
If there is a reason for the tears we cry
No one dares to answer, no one tells us why
Look at all the nations fighting for a crown
Building up their empires just to burn them down
Are we only actors in a tragic game?
Living for the glory, dying for the fame?
Through the shifting patterns of the sands of time
Every single heartbeat is a silent crime
But through the storm we′ll carry on!
Until the final curtain's drawn!
We′ll find the strength to face the sky
We'll live our lives, we will not die! In this theatrical parade
We are the masters of the masquerade!
Justice is a whisper, freedom is a ghost
We are carving heaven where we hurt the most!
Sail across the ocean of the human mind
Leaving all the sorrow and the chains behind!
But through the storm we'll carry on!
Until the final curtain′s drawn!
We′ll find the strength to face the sky
We'll live our lives, we will not die!
In this theatrical parade
We are the masters of the masquerade!
Till the sun grows cold
And the story′s told
We'll keep on walking through the dark
