my life just seem to be a mess
everyday its just the same
I wake up and then get dressed
just like people it doesn't change
everything I say and do means nothing to you
why pretend to be my friend
when I know you hate me too

why put on this masquerade
why pull down your secret shade
why not tell me to my face
why do you bring me down from grace

days go by and life goes on
people tell me nothings wrong
but you sing a different song
and remember life goes on

why put on this masquerade
why pull down your secret shade
why not tell me to my face
why do you bring me down from grace

why do you do the things you do
why not tell me that we're through
my life was great before you came
now nothing is the same
and I know for whom to blame
thanks to you nothing can ever change

why put on this masquerade
why pull down your secret shade
why not tell me to my face
why do you bring me down from grace
