[Lyric] Masquerade (Praying Mantis)

[Verse 1]
There you are, stood in your edifice of power
Allegiance to a belief or just a misguided dream? (Dream)
The leaders of our history, dictators of the scene

[Chorus]
Come and join the masquerade
We fall out of darkness, the fears that will fade
Come on, join the masquerade
Join the masquerade

[Post-Chorus]
I'll tell ya

[Verse 2]
There you are, controlling the situation
Telling them all what you want them to hear, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Come and join the masquerade, woah
We fall out of darkness, the fears that will fade
Come on, join the masquerade
[Post-Chorus]
Join the masquerade
The masquerade
I’ll tell ya

[Bridge]
The clowns are the stars in this satirical parade
The tide will turn before it's too late
Believe all our lies, we're all in this too deep
The power you hold, the havoc you wreak

[Chorus]
Even when we join the masquerade
We fall out of darkness, the fears that will fade
Come on, join the masquerade
Join the masquerade
Join the masquerade
We fall out of darkness, the fears that will fade
Come on, join the masquerade
The masquerade
The masquerade
