"Selfish Masquerade" lyrics

"Selfish Masquerade"

If I say, "It's alright..."
Do you believe me, or know that I'm lying?
"It's ok, it's all right, it'll get done, just not tonight, no not tonight..."
But you know that I'm lying

On and on you'll see it
You'll waste your time believing
The waiting will just drive you insane

These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me, believe in me

When I say, "It's all right..."
I believe it; I don't know that I'm lying
"It's ok, it's all right, you'll get out, just not tonight, no not tonight..."
Well I know that you're tired

On and on you'll see it
You'll waste your time believing
The waiting will just drive you insane

These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me
These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me, believe in me

Cause this is my selfish masquerade
I'll tell you what you want to hear, it comes easily to me
And this is my selfish masquerade
I'll tell you what you want to hear, it comes easily to me

On and on you'll see it
You'll waste your time believing
The waiting will just drive you insane

These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me
These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me
These castles of sand are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me, believe in me
