První CD začali...
Your face, my face
You breathe, I breathe
You fail, I fake
I pray, I pray
You lose, I lose
You bruise, I bruise
I hunt, you stay
My prey, my prey
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
A ball, tonight
Cover your eyes
By touch and taste
We'll find our way
Your secrets deep
Yes I will keep
I hunt, you stay
My prey, my prey
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
Take off your mask
And you will see
The freak in you
The freak in me
Tonight we hide
From judging eyes
Take off your mask
And you will see
The freak in you
The freak in me
Tonight we hide
From judging eyes
We'll dance until the sunrise
My prey, my prey
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
My Masquerade
If you're not afraid
To take a step into my world
My Masquerade
