Masquerade

(album: The White Room - 2012)

We are wearing a mask in the truth parade
We are waving our flags upholding this charade
We are hiding while You're watching and it's killing me
Hoping our light doesn't fade in this Masquerade

Eloquent and relevant we're showing through our smiles
Money trees and prophecies the list can go for miles
My oh my, my oh my, my oh my
Have we genuinely lost our minds this time?

We are wearing a mask in the truth parade
We are waving our flags upholding this charade
We are hiding while You're watching and it's killing me
Hoping our light doesn't fade in this Masquerade

Standing still like mannequins expecting them to follow
Freedom peddlers, Spirit sellers, speaking lies like fortune tellers
My oh my, my oh my, my oh my
Have we genuinely lost our minds this time?

We are wearing a mask in the truth parade
We are waving our flags upholding this charade
We are hiding while You're watching and it's killing me
Hoping our light doesn't fade in this Masquerade

Are we hurting more than we are saving?
Will these masks ever come off?
