"Masquerade" lyrics

"Masquerade"

Woke up today
Tears on my pillow
Lines on my face
Reflect in the window
If I escape
Could I still love you?
If I ran away, where would I run to?
Where would I run to?

Build a house live in my dreams
Grow a garden to plant my feet
All this fresh air, but still can't breathe
When a cloud of rains on me

It's easy to hide away
When the world's going up in flames
It's easier to hide my face
And keep wearing the mask I made
Masquerade

If you don't play
You'll be sitting on sidelines
Time to make my mistakes
Color outside the guidelines
What's causing the pain?
It could all be so simple
If I ran away, where would I run to?
Where would I run to?

Build a house live in my dreams
Grow a garden to plant my feet
All this fresh air, but still can't breathe
When a cloud of rains on me

It's easy to hide away
When the world's going up in flames
It's easier to hide my face
And keep wearing the mask I made
Masquerade
