lyrics

Loose yourself into the muddled faces
In the masquerade
Crush yourself among all the people inside
A golden cage
Boredom leads to senseless things and pretty people do pretty things
While you work
Kill another victim in an overweight prison
Times a curse

Where every mistake you've made
Will bite you in the back
Until you're in the grave

The voices gain their amplitude while you disguise behind an attitude
Of a crown
You'll stand up and start to announce your name to the rest
Of these clowns

Where all the stars you see
Are just images
On a green screen

As if there was a place
You could not breath
But still be free

The blood in the room will diminish when the salt hits the wound
Hits the wound with an obsession of changing moods
The Masquerade is bleating
Calling for some truth
But everyone's in disguise
No one can see them cry

The blood in the room will diminish when the salt hits the wound
Hits the wound with an obsession of changing moods
The Masquerade is bleating
Calling for some truth
But everyone's in disguise
No one can see them cry
A masquerade
A golden cage
