[Verse 1]
Looking gla**
Denim dreams
When there's love we run away
Plastic smile
Tonic stare
When there's love we run away
Such a lonely waltz
Mannequins and mirror balls
[Verse 2]
He's too thin
She's too cool
We're in love we run away
Never met
But we text
We're in love
But we run away
Such a lonely waltz
Mannequins and mirror balls
[Chorus]
It's a masquerade
We hide behind the pretty face
But underneath this leather
There's a broken heart
Too afraid to fall apart
And waste away
[Verse 3]
Microscope and magazines
Get too close
We run away
Can't sit here
We're too lost
Red lipstick
We run away
Such a lonely waltz
Mannequins and mirror balls
[Verse 4]
Upside down
Sleeping pill
Fall asleep
We run away
Résumés
Ivy leagues
We're too good
We run away
Such a lonely waltz
Mannequins and mirror balls
[Chorus]x2
It's a masquerade
We hide behind the pretty face
But underneath this leather
There's a broken heart
Too afraid to fall apart
And waste away
[Bridge]
I'll sew you back together
Until you're whole again
There's something deep inside
Waiting to glow again
And now and then
We change
The world is frozen grey
But let us share a dance
The symphony within our souls
Give it a chance
This is romance
We're young and brave
So take your mask away
[Chorus] x2
It's a masquerade
We hide behind the pretty face
But underneath this leather
There's a broken heart
Too afraid to fall apart
And waste away
