MASQUERADE
WORDS HYDE/Lynne Hodbay
MUSIC HYDE

(BLESS)
Lord, please shine your light down upon me
Lord, grant me good forture don't shun me
Take all this unhappiness from me
Say, am I just crazy?? Well, GOD BLESS ME!

Now Lord, save me a place there upon the ark
I have been wandering in the dark
Put me into your collection
Lord, am I not worth your salvation?

It's all a masquerade
Just who is who, I can't say
Don't leave me in the cold
Just who is fake, who's real?? GOD BLESS ME!

So Lord, why do you watch from the sidelines?
War, it's being fought on the frontlines
Say, what is your final intention?
Lord, I've kinda lost my conviction

It's all a masquerade
Just who is who, I can't say
Don't leave me in the cold
Just who is fake, who's real?? GOD BLESS ME!

(BLESS)

Why do we have a word for truth
When the whole damn world's an April fool?
How come we find an antidote
When germs grow fast and break the rules?
Why do I soil my clean white shoes
When it won't be long before they're old and worn?
Are you sad or are you happy?
how this pretension makes me yawn(GOD BLESS ME!)

It's all a masquerade
Just who is who, I can't say
Don't leave me in the cold
Just who is fake, who's real?

It's all a masquerade
Just who is who, I can't say
Don't leave me in the cold
Just who is fake, who's real?? GOD BLESS ME!
