Masquerade (Niightwatch Demo)
[Verse 1]
There's a stranger in my bed
Lighting up a cigarette
Looking at me like he's lost
There's a letter by his side
Burning with the reasons why
Our mask has finally dropped
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause now he looks at me
And it's like I don't even know him
And when he touches me
I've forgotten how to hold him
[Chorus]
How can you call it love if
You never show your face?
Did we fall in love in the middle of
The middle of a masquerade?
The middle of a masquerade?
[Verse 2]
Now there's a foreign taste on his tongue
I'm trying to translate what we've become
But I can't make sense of him when we're together
And maybe I got caught up in dreams
And it wasn't quite what it seemed
But you can't hide behind the truth forever
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause now he talks to me
And it's like I don't even know him
And when he touches me
I've forgotten how to hold him
[Chorus]
How can you call it love if
You never show your face?
Did we fall in love in the middle of
The middle of a masquerade?
Now the one I fell for
Is gone without a trace
Did we fall in love in the middle of
The middle of a masquerade?
The middle of a masquerade?
[Outro]
Tell me, did we fall in love?
By the bedside (I don't even know who you are)
On the train ride (I don't even know who you are)
With your shoes tied (I don't even know who you are)
And your brown eyes (I don't even know who you are)
When you touch me (I don't even know who you are)
In your blue jeans (I don't even know who you are)
Say you love me (I don't even know who you are)
But you don't know me (I don't even know who you are)
Say you love me (I don't even know who you are)
You say you love me (I don't even know who you are)
In the middle of a masquerade
