Masquerading

(None of this is real, none of it) I got rid of your phone number yesterday The one I stole from caller ID, anyway Without you knowing it Now I’m throwing it on the fire (It too goes on the fire) I got rid of some memories yesterday The ones I guess you must have forgotten to take away Without me knowing it Now I’m showing it’s just a masquerade (I was only kidding myself) In my head And none of this is real (None of this is real, none of it) I got rid of emotions yesterday That were the start of all of the things I shouldn’t say About you, knowing it would end up blowing up in my face (Just like an atom bomb) I got rid of some photographs yesterday Saw you smile, and sitting to my right you looked away Without me knowing it You were showing it was a masquerade (I was only kidding myself) In my head And none of it was real (None of this is real, none of it) The ballgown’s torn, the mask has slipped Now I can see that we were tricked The music’s stopped, the moon is fading We were only masquerading, only masquerading after all (It’s all over in my head, ‘cause like I said) I got rid of your phone number yesterday
