I've been to parties like this before
Nobody moves they just stare at the floor
Everyone's watching waiting on me
As if my words will set them free
But I'm not a ghost
No I'm not a god
I hold no power over you
I'm just a lightning rod
I've bottled every crush
Every foolish fantasy
I'm to beautiful for love
There's no sharing vanity
I'm not ashamed to say I've lost my mind
I've been walking backwards all my life
Some might say there's a price I've paid
For a life less ordinary
Welcome to my masquerade
I've been to parties like this before
Where the prom queen is easy on the floor
Nobody know what to say or do
So they point the fingers at you
But I will not be swayed
I won't be led astray
I'm to beautiful for blame
I always get away
But I'm not a ghost
No I'm not a god
I hold no power over you
I'm just a lightning rod
I'm not ashamed to say I've lost my mind
I've been walking backwards all my life
Some might say there's a price I've paid
For a life less ordinary
Welcome to my masquerade
I'm not ashamed to say I've lost my mind
I've been walking backwards all my life
Some might say there's a price I've paid
For a life less ordinary
Welcome to my masquerade
Welcome to my masquerade
Welcome to my masquerade...
