are we really happy with
this lonely game we play
looking for the right words to say
searching but not finding
understanding anyway
we're lost in this masquerade
both afraid to say
we're just too far away
from being close together
from the start
*we tried to talk it over
but the words got in the way
we're lost inside this lonely
game we play
thoughts of leaving disappear
each time I see your eyes
and no matter how hard I try
to understand the reason
why we carry on this way
and we're lost in this masquerade
*repeat
we're lost in a masquerade
