"masquerade" lyrics
"masquerade"
They got hot breath blowing down my neck
Make my skin crawl (Skin crawl)
Make my hair stand up
Substance left inside my head
Keep me in line (In line)
Telling me I'm not allowed to
Feel this way
Oh at least don't show it
Yeah you got an image to protect now
Sell your soul if you don't we'll know it
So welcome to the masquerade
We're all tryna fool each other that we're all ok
Dancin' with the devil 'round the truth
Face your smiles (Face your smiles)
And hide your face (Hide your face)
Keep it prim and proper there's no stopping the charade
Chant the words like you're supposed to do
"I'm fine, how're you?"
Tear down all the cathedrals
We worship at the altar of ourself
Twelve hundred little pixels
To fake heaven out of our personal hell
What's the matter, what's the matter, what's the matter with you?
I'm alone and she's alone and we're alone admit it
But just wait a minute
I think the high is kicking in oh
So welcome to the masquerade
We're all tryna fool each other that we're all ok
Dancin' with the devil 'round the truth
Face your smiles (Face your smiles)
And hide your face (Hide your face)
Keep it prim and proper there's no stopping the charade
Chant the words like you're supposed to do
"I'm fine, how're you?"
Woah-oh
Yeah
Woah-oh
Woah-oh
No (Woah-oh)
I'm fine (Woah-oh)
Yeah I'm fine (Woah-oh)
'Cause I'm fine
How're you?
And the funny part is we all see right through
Everybody's mask except our own
'Til we're drivin' home
And can't convince ourselves we're not really alone

Jonah Kagen - "God Needs The Devil" Hmm, follow me
Said a long black dress on Halloween
If this is all just make believe
It might not be real, but it's real to me

Hanniou - "what do i do now" Wish I could say that I feel stupid, but I don't
'Cause honestly a part of me's still holding on to hope
You ticked too many boxes I've read too many books
To think it's not exactly as perfect as it...
Camylio - "strangers" It's sleeping in between the two of us
And we can feel it grow
We were a flame that burned out all at once
Now all that's left is cold
I know soon
We'll have to learn how to live on our own
You know...
Tors - "Only For You" I'll give you my head
My heart
My bones
I'll give you my bed
My spark
My home
I don't need anything left when you go
So when you leave me you won't leave me whole
Take all the light
My eyes
Allow...
Sam MacPherson - "How Do You Dress For The Rain?" Make it hard, make it easy
Either way, let me know
'Cause I would fight if you ask me
Or give you space, let you go
When I come close to giving in
You call me, make it feel like it always did
I keep...
