Lyrics
Can this world, mm, be a masquerade?
Are you really what we see on the outside?
And hidin' what you really are on the inside
Pretending that you're something you're really not, yeah, yeah
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face
Just like a masquerade
Just like a masquerade
Yeah, can't you see, can't you see what you really are, ooh yeah
Pretending that you want the world to be a better place
Yet you're fightin', makin' war on your fellow man
So why wear this face that makes it seem everything's so great, yeah, yeah
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face, another face
Won't you tell me
What can the whole world be hiding?
Whole world is a masquerade
What can the whole world be hiding
Whole world
What can the whole world be hiding?
Whole world is a masquerade
What can the whole world be hiding?
Whole world
What can the whole world be hiding?
Whole world is a masquerade
What can the whole world be hiding?
