Masquerade
Unveiling Desires: The Revies' Masquerade Revealed
Lyrics
Looking out for something I'll be afraid to lose, and I'm
Searching for something valuable that I fear losing, and
chasing a mirage for the thrill of pursuit,
Pursuing an illusion for the excitement of the chase,
I'm not insane, I'm just like you
Asserting sanity, emphasizing commonality with others,
Founding a religion to die with some conviction as
Establishing a belief system to face death with conviction,
Dominoes of life start to fall and it's a vision
Life's events unfolding like falling dominoes, revealing a vision,
Of all that I've been, all that is left after you
Reflecting on one's past and what remains after a significant loss,
I am become my disguise, fade into
Becoming the facade one presents to the world, blending into darkness,
black as midnight lullabies, I'll never
Assuming a dark persona akin to midnight lullabies,
Be what I seem or say what I mean
Expressing a disconnect between appearance and true thoughts,
Killing the time to stay alive
Passing time with activities to survive,
Looking out the window, the world it doesn't seem like I
Observing the world outside, feeling detachment and questioning existence,
need to be here for final act and scene of this play,
Suggesting a lack of necessity to be present for life's concluding moments,
Killer queen, twisting the knife now I'm
Reference to a powerful female figure causing pain,
Home in the insanity, I never wanna leave, and I
Feeling at home in a state of madness, expressing a desire to remain,
Never mind the deeds that could send my soul careening
Disregarding actions that could lead to moral downfall,
Down underneath, warm with the sinners I knew, like you
Embracing sin and being comfortable with those who share similar qualities.
