Are we really happy here in this lonely game we play

Looking for words to say

Searching but not finding understanding anywhere

We're lost in this masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away

Ebm7 Ab C#
From being close together from the start

Dm7 G C
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way

Gm G C F#
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Fm FmMaj7 Fm7 Bb
Thought of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes

Fm C# G C
No matter how hard I try

To understand the reasons that we carry on this way

We're lost in a masquerade.
