There's a place we know that you can go and join in the parade“ And I said “I'm just sitting here licking my wounds And i don't think i'll be finished soon Where can I find a place to hide from this mess I've made?“ At the Masquerade! You'll be glad you came! They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face At the Masquerade! It's gonna be ok! Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! Blast and break through They dragged me to this zoo “Put your mask on: That's the key“ Which animal is right for me? So I burst through the pearly gates and I was alarmed by what awaited They greeted me with open arms: Like I was one of them And I felt right away they let me in Absolved me of my prior sins So I shed this wretched skin at last! And I became the mask! At the Masquerade! You'll be glad you came! They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face At the Masquerade! It's gonna be ok! Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! It's a chance to leave it all behind (leave it all behind) Start again, begin a brand new life They were right that I wouldn't hate it To think that I hesitated I finally checked my checkered past And i'm not going back! At the Masquerade! You'll be glad you came! They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face At the Masquerade! It's gonna be ok! Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! Come along don't you fear the Masquerade! Step in: Don't be afraid Take your pain and deepest shame And let them go a the Masquerade! Grab a mask and cover up your face! Wrap yourself in silk brocade. Just forget the mistakes you made Cause no one cares at the Masquerade!
