This is contemporary rock and the three line verses work well with the music I have in my head. There's a short set up music break in between verses. Masquerade I see the way you state your fame the latest styles a fashion dame the coolest look miss Chatelaine But your nights are lonely girl beyond that look's another world and it sets my mind to whirl. Chorus: I know you're searchin for a better place while you're playin out your masquerade how much time is left for you to save you're gettin older in your masquerade It's so strange this life you lead lost in the land of make believe with fairy tales and crazy dreams. I feel your fear when I'm near you you entertain to hide the truth but you're so helpless in that mood. rep chorus: I know the way you play the game painted nails and long gold chains your ruby lips your perfect frame. I'd love to see your long black hair across my pillows everywhere under your skin I'd find you there. Rep Chorus: I know you're searchin for a better place while you're playin out your masquerade how much time is left for you to save you're gettin older in your masquerade........ © Eric True He he that sure was fun. But hey, I'll see her on the elevator again tommorrow and the next day and the next day and....... just imagining things.... ho hum hum time for bed and dream about her!! The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

PT darling boy Oh my I’m stunned with admiration this has got to be one of you utter utter best. Truly the line and flow in this is absolutely excellent. You are always a fabulous writer, in this you have excelled yourself. If you keep writing like this I shall start running out of superlatives and that would never do would it? Yes darling boy I'm back, I wouldn't necessarily say that is a good thing. You'd have to read a poem or two to tell me. YOU however are outstandingly good you always were you know. ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() ![]() To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |
