Different Stories - The Masquerade Lyrics
I spent days looking for the real youBut all I've found inside was a soul, a shellA hollow state of the one who you used to be.Every single day, every *****ing way,I tried to make you better,Make you smile again.Trying to contain the poison in my stingTrying to contain the power in my swingTrying to contain, trying to containWhat does it even mean?As I wait for your sakeI hope that you don't stay the sameAs I pray - I have prayedThat you will change.Don't stay the same way.As I wait for your sakeI hope that you don't stay the sameAs I pray - I have prayedThat you will change.Don't stay the same way.All I wanted, all I ever wishedwas a better man, a better friendBeneath the skin that consumes you.All I ever wished was a better man, a better friendBeneath the skin that consumes you.How do you feel when even your own blood can't look at you?"This is a Masquerade!"All I ever wishedwas a better man, a better friendBeneath the skin that consumes you.All I ever wished was a better man, a better friendBeneath the skin that consumes you.W E H A T E Y O U F R O M T H E B O T T O M O F O U R H E A R T!
