Masked faces,
behind them you hide.
Give me your true self,
as I have tried.
Costume balls,
the center of all life's masquerading.
Brightly colored phantoms,
I am sick of their parading.
Glitter and Glitz,
sins of those that love them,
forget their brillance,
and give this jaded fairytale an end.
Time freezes,
hands hold waists,
feet hover above floors,
is this the dancer's fate?
Once upon a time,
I was a dancer too.
Flying in an invisible partners arms,
never once thinking about you.
Fairytale endings,
they just don't happen anymore.
I leave the costume ball.
What have I been waiting for?
behind them you hide.
Give me your true self,
as I have tried.
Costume balls,
the center of all life's masquerading.
Brightly colored phantoms,
I am sick of their parading.
Glitter and Glitz,
sins of those that love them,
forget their brillance,
and give this jaded fairytale an end.
Time freezes,
hands hold waists,
feet hover above floors,
is this the dancer's fate?
Once upon a time,
I was a dancer too.
Flying in an invisible partners arms,
never once thinking about you.
Fairytale endings,
they just don't happen anymore.
I leave the costume ball.
What have I been waiting for?
