Are we really happy with this lonely game we play,

                      -5  
Looking for  words to say?

                 +7                  
Searching but not finding understanding any way,

                      
We're lost in this masquerade


Bridge:

                                   
Both afraid to say we're just too far away,

                              
From being close together from the start

                                           
We tried to talk it over, but the words got in the way,

                         -5    
We're lost inside this lonely game we play.


(Instrumental)


Repeat bridge:

                   +7                         
Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes,

                    -5  
No matter how hard I try

                +7                      
To understand the reason that we carry on this way,

                      
We're lost in this masquerade.

Another great hit from Kraziekhat!
