The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Life is a ball

So welcome, please come in

Make sure you wear your mask

All you women, all you men



Here at this masquerade

There is dancing, there is life

But do not be fooled, under each mask

Is a mind full of pain and a mind full of strife



Secret battles are waging

Hiding beneath the disguise

And soon this refuge

Will be your demise



No one sees who you are

Or who you can be

Underneath what you're wearing

Into darkness do you flee



Soon the mask is overwhelming

You are fooled too

You believe it's who you are

There's nothing else to do



Your life is no longer your own

It becomes something new

You're someone else completely

Obscuring even your view

Sad, lonely eyes

Empty, pain-filled voice

Broken from so many lies

Can't make a choice



Lips barely breathing

To hard to think

Not really believing

Knows she will sink



Just like a rose

Beautiful and vain

She holds you close

No matter the pain



Yet you turn away

Leave her crying and alone

There's nothing I can say

For you are all she's known



You cannot see it

You choose not to look

You say she'll never fit

It's not a faery tale book



She begs you not to go

She says you are her prince

You don't listen and say no

You have been like that ever since



It used to be different

In the past the roles were switched

But this time it's you that has went

And left her completely ditched



Over a single mistake she made

Compared to your repeated one

Yours seemed tp fade

While hers couldn't run



At least she won't repeat it

Though you always do

You may have taken a hit

But she has taken two



You toy with how she's feeling

Constantly with no end

What she needs is to be healing

But with you she can only pretend



Pretend she's alright

Pretend she can handle it all

But look at this sight

You made her fall



Who will pick her off the groumd

She won't let it be me

It's you to whom she's bound

All her faith is in thee



But you don't hear

And you don't care

You don't see a tear

You don't dare



So stop making it harder

Taking her hopes and tearing the apart

You're just committing murder

Of her innocent, child-like heart
