Masqerade Lyrics - Singles - Much The Same

Sitting here and reading your thoughts, my heart sinks once again 

'Cause I caught you in another lie, find no truth in what you said 

You say that you'll hurt my feelings 

You say I won't understand 

I say you're just a coward 

Just a counterfeit friend 

And all the times I've been there, they didn't mean a thing 

At least not to you, but I know they meant something to me 

And I wish that I could give up, is that what you want from me? 

Because I'm still your friend even if you don't want me to be 

My promises are haunting me, not so easily shoved aside 

And yet I keep on trying to finally justify 

Taking every single word back, every pledge I ever made 

Because the friend I swore them to was nothing but a masquerade 

Then you ask if something's wrong 

If only you could hear this song 

You'd just make up some lame excuse 

So it's no use listening to you 

What do you do when you're not lying, do you have other words to say? 

Why do I have to try so hard to keep from pushing you away? 

I wish that I could give up, is that what you want from me? 

Because I'm still your friend even if you've never been one to me
