[Intro]
Backstreet
Listen up

[Verse 1]
This scene's so hypnotic
Smoking mirrors, lights and magic
Paper faces in gold
There's solider boys, beauty queens
Everyone's a mystery
It's got me losing control
Yearning, I'm yearning for the one to steal my eyes
Want to play in this game of disguise

[Chorus]
It's a masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All through the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay with me tonight
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade

[Verse 2]
Just like a perfect dream
I don't ever wanna leave
A thousand freaks in the show
One's a tiger, one's a lynx
One's a king that suffering
Moving high, moving low
Burning, I'm burning, can't you see it in my eyes?
Want to play in this game of disguise

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I got to know the girl behind the mask
Let me in, where you've been, don't pretend
Dreamed that I had her alone
Show your face to me, we could be everything

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade[x2]
