[Verse 1:]
I´d like to take this time, just to apologize,
The way you see me now, and what I am inside,
Really your character, there wasn´t in it for us,
I tried to keep it up.

[Hook 1:]
When I looked in your eyes, tonight,
I saw your heart crystal clear,
And when you look back in mine,
The truth seemed to disappear.

[Chorus:]
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
masquerade [x8]

[Verse 2:]
I said "I loved you" first,
Well "love" is just a word,
Said it so many times,
That it became a blur,
You´re not the only one,
I´m sure that hearing it hurts,
All of the pain you had,
I´m the worst.

[Hook 2:]
And in your eyes tonight,
I saw your heart crystal clear,
And when you looked back in mine,
All the lies re-appeared.

[Chorus:]
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
Because it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade,
masquerade [x8]

[Bridge:]
Now I can´t believe you´re telling me,
That you can move on easily,
I thought you really cared for me,
I was wrong, I was wrong,
I should´ve known my thorn was bitter sweet,
And saw the possibilites of me playing you, while playing me,
I was wrong, I was wrong,

So I guess it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade.

I guess it was all, it was all,
It was all a masquerade.

Masquerade [x8]
