[Verse 1]

Tearing me apart with the words you wouldn't say

And suddenly tomorrow's a moment washed away

'Cause I don't have a reason, and you don't have the time

But we both keep on waiting for something we won't find

[Chorus]

The light on the horizon was brighter yesterday

With shadows floating over, the scars began to fade

We said it was forever, but then it slipped away

Standing at the end of the final masquerade, the final masquerade

[Verse 2]

All I ever wanted, the secrets that you keep

All you ever wanted, the truth I couldn't speak

'Cause I can't see forgiveness, and you can't see the crime

And we both keep on waitin' for what we left behind

[Chorus]

The light on the horizon was brighter yesterday

With shadows floating over, the scars began to fade

We said it was forever, but then it slipped away

Standing at the end of the final masquerade

[Post-Chorus]

The final masquerade, the final masquerade

Standing at the end of the final masquerade

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

The light on the horizon was brighter yesterday

With shadows floating over, the scars began to fade

We said it was forever, but then it slipped away

Standing at the end of the final masquerade

[Outro]

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Standing at the end of the final masquerade

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Standing at the end of the final masquerade (Oh-oh-oh), the final masquerade

(Oh-oh-oh)
