Masquerade
Breaking Free: Unveiling the Emotion Behind 'Masquerade'
Lyrics
I saw her sippin' tea at the cafe where we first met
I observed her casually having tea at the cafe where we initially met.
I hope she doesn't see me 'cause she's sitting with her new boyfriend
I hope she doesn't notice me because she's with her new boyfriend.
Don't get me wrong I hope she's doing alright
Despite my feelings, I genuinely wish she's doing well.
But her love's my weakness it's my kryponite
Her love is my weakness, comparable to kryptonite.
I feel shipwrecked with no sign of land in sight
I feel emotionally stranded with no visible solution.
And then it hits me
A realization or revelation occurs.
I get the feelin' I'm movin' on
I sense that I am moving forward.
I've hid behind this mask for too long
I've hidden behind a facade for too long.
Couldn't let her go, start over again
I couldn't let go of her and start anew.
But every day I
Every day, I...
Reminisce with less regret, it's my turn for some happiness
Recall past experiences with less remorse, it's time for my happiness.
I'm no longer lost in the disguise of my masquerade
I am no longer lost in the pretense of my masquerade.
I guess it's true when they say time can heal all my pain
It seems accurate that time can alleviate all my pain.
The weatherman's forecasting sunny days to take away this rain
The weather forecast predicts sunny days to replace the current difficulties.
I look at my reflection as I start to grin
Looking at my reflection, I start to smile.
I'm struttin' down the street feeling confident
I confidently walk down the street.
I've got aces up my sleeve baby I'm all in again
I have strong assets; I am fully committed again.
And then it hits me
Another realization or revelation occurs.
I get the feelin' I'm movin' on
I have a feeling that I am moving on.
I've hid behind this mask for too long
I've concealed my true self for too long.
Couldn't let her go, start over again
I couldn't let her go and start afresh.
But everyday I
But every day I...
Reminisce with less regret, it's my turn for some happiness
Recall past experiences with less remorse, it's time for my happiness.
I'm no longer lost in the disguise of my masquerade
I am no longer lost in the pretense of my masquerade.
As the crowd marches by, I see a girl wink my way
Observing a passing crowd, I notice a girl winking at me.
Opportunities knockin' we get to talkin' hey girl what's your name?
Opportunities arise, we start a conversation, and I ask for her name.
She's beautiful, she's irresistible, a new beginning starts today
She is beautiful, irresistible, marking a new beginning today.
Come on girl, give me a call, I'm back in the saddle again
I encourage her to call me; I am ready for a new chapter.
I get the feelin' I'm movin' on
I have a feeling that I am moving on.
I've hid behind this mask for too long
I've concealed my true self for too long.
Couldn't let her go, start over again
I couldn't let her go and start afresh.
But everyday I
But every day I...
Reminisce with less regret, it's my turn for some happiness
Recall past experiences with less remorse, it's time for my happiness.
I'm no longer lost in the disguise of my masquerade
I am no longer lost in the pretense of my masquerade.
