Looking glass, 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 He's too thin, she's too cool We're in love, we run away Never met, but we text We're in love, we run away Such a lonely waltz Mannequins and mirror balls 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 Microscope, 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 Upside down, sleeping pills Fall asleep, we run away Résumés, ivy leagues We're too good, we run away Such a lonely waltz Mannequins and mirror balls 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 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 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 Masquerade We hide behind the pretty face But underneath this leather there's a broken heart Too afraid to fall apart and waste away 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, yeah
