Song information
We all wear masks of some kind or another. There's always some part of us we hide from everyone. Sometimes even ourselves. Maybe it's something small - a mask of cheerfulness on a day we're not really feeling it. Or something bigger - an ideology, sexuality or religion that you have to wear for your own protection. Or maybe you are actually a Lizardman wearing a mask so you can infiltrate the human race in order to set the stage for your people's imminent invasion. And I am in no way saying the last one applies to me. Who said it does?

This is an older tune. First recorded in 2012. I've gone in and remixed and remastered it as well as swapping out the original drum loops for a Drummer track. Style-wise, this is a little different from my usual sound. Pounding drums, distorted guitar and I get to use my rock 'n' roll voice. Stealing the vibe from some of my favorites like The Cult and Jet. It's a little heavier with a harder edge than my usual sound, so my advice is PLAY IT LOUD!

Lyrics
Masquerade
©2012 Joseph Gurner


Look in the mirror
See the mask I wear every day
Yeah yeah

What does it cover
Who is the man left inside
Hiding away from the world


You can’t see
The face I hide
You can’t see

You can’t see
The face I hide
In this life’s 
Masquerade


Look at a stranger
A stranger you see every day
Oh no no

Hiding my anger
It takes away
the man I want to be


You can’t see
The face I hide
You can’t see

You can’t see
The face I hide
In this life’s 
Masquerade

Let me live
In a world 
Where I can be 
The man I am

Let me live
In a world
Without fear


Look in the mirror
See the mask you wear every day
Yeah yeah

You let it consume you
Filling you up with its fear
Of the world

You can’t see
The face I hide
You can’t see

You can’t see
The face I hide
In this life’s 
Masquerade
