Masquerade

This is the first song I'm posting here so be kind..thanx

Lose yourself…it’s your last chance to lose it
In the beat of the song that’s playing trough the speakers tonight
It reminds me of my bitterness…so deceiving…
How can something wrong feel so right?
I’m walking into my own deathtrap as I move along the floor
My eyes sift, I move closer, I won’t run away anymore!

Watch how forever ends tonight!
The clock strikes midnight and we’re still breathing
This night goes on forever as long as we settle for the lies
These masks hide our identity
And in this masquerade I lose my dignity
One kiss and a dance on the side, we won’t make it out of here alive

Look at me…tonight you’ll love what you see
Your smile is like a paper knife cutting away pages of books
Your lies are making me feel faker….faker than thee
Fake as a ragged doll’s beautiful looks
My hand is in your hand and we’re both cautiously slipping in place
Flames ignite, as I’m haunted, who wears this mask upon their face?

Watch how forever ends tonight!
The clock strikes midnight and we’re still breathing
This night goes on forever as long as we settle for the lies
These masks hide our identity
And in this masquerade I lose my dignity
One kiss and a dance on the side, we won’t make it out of here alive

My mysterious friend, tonight I’ll bring you blood red roses
With the thorns still in them
When you prick your finger, please accept my apologies
They run like ink on paper….

Watch how forever ends tonight!
The clock strikes midnight and we’re still breathing
This night goes on forever as long as we settle for the lies
These masks hide our identity
And in this masquerade I lose my dignity
One kiss and a dance on the side, we won’t make it out of here alive

I look into your hollow eyes,
You lost the weapons you called lies
My glass is full, and as I take it down
This masquerade ends, my body hits the ground

And just before I close my eyes,
The clock strikes midnight, while none of us is breathing

Wow, this is really great, I really like this

Great job!

I am so sorry of how emo I am LoL!

My mysterious friend, tonight I’ll bring you blood red roses
With the thorns still in them
When you prick your finger, please accept my apologies
They run like ink on paper….

I just like LOVE that part to death. The whole song actually.
Look at this your already new here and your already inspiring meh haha xD

Heres another bit I liked

Watch how forever ends tonight!
The clock strikes midnight and we’re still breathing
This night goes on forever as long as we settle for the lies


I'm glad to see another gal in the review forum LoL

Shadow u'r sooo funny lol

Alyc3 I enjoyed this, it's very good for a first. And this was the coup-de-gras:

I look into your hollow eyes,
You lost the weapons you called lies
My glass is full, and as I take it down
This masquerade ends, my body hits the ground

Whatever you do with this in the future, do not lose that. It just nails the whole thing

Really good lyrics. Looking forward to reading more of your work.
