Masquerade Lyrics - Elegy

[Parry] 

On the surface things look different 

What's underneath you cannot tell 

For years it seems that everything is going well 

Behind the laughter hides a mystery 

Shrouded in a friendly veil 

The moment when you're making progress 

All things fail 

A challenge to be solved, they can't resist 

The chase 

Their masquerade 

This dangerous path you're on, what if your instinct's wrong 

Beware the wrath of a patient man 

Danger, danger 

Danger Lies 

Close beside, close beside you 

Danger, danger, close beside 

Waiting to take you away 

What we perceive as being normal 

A twisted mind won't stipulate 

To occupy their genius a masquerade 

Way down a no-where road you're drifting 

Into a no-where place you'll stay 

Make a wish pray someone's listening, night and day
