My Masquerade

A notification lights my screen

For a moment, my resolve grows weak

I won’t see you, I can’t see you

There’s no future left for you and me

I thought our hearts had found their way

I thought we’d walk the same road someday

I never knew that love alone

Couldn’t solve what stood between us

When I see it for what it is

Your road and mine can never run as one

While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away

Who am I? My reflection starts to fade

What do you want? What are you looking for?

Your unwavering gaze—I hide away

My masquerade

It meant too much to call it a game

But I never let it carry a name

I couldn’t say that it was real

I never wanted you to see how I feel

I know I may seem composed and cold

But there’s an ache I’ll always hold

Still, I know the choice I made

Was the right one anyway

To put it simply, after all

Let’s call it a misunderstanding

While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away

Who am I? My reflection starts to fade

What do you want? What are you looking for?

Your unwavering gaze—I hide away

My masquerade

They say that love can conquer all

But I don’t believe that fairy tale anymore

I have to face reality

That’s what matters most to me

While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away

Who am I? My reflection starts to fade

What do you want? What are you looking for?

Your unwavering gaze—I hide away

My masquerade

While silence hangs between us, I hide my heart away

Who am I? My reflection starts to fade

What do you want? What are you looking for?

Your unwavering gaze—I hide away

My masquerade
