Word for August 31: Masquerade

Today's word:

Masquerade

I picked a challenging one today, but in a short time had thought of a few songs, so it's not impossible.

  2. I'm sick and tired of this masquerade.
    I'm bored to death by the games we play.
    For too long now it's been a charade.

  3. Masquerade!
    Paper faces on parade.
    Masquerade!
    Hide your face, so the world will never find you!
    Masquerade!
    Every face a different shade.
    Masquerade!
    Look around -
    there's another
    mask behind you!

    Song: Masquerade
    Composer: Andrew Lloyd Weber

  4. The painted faces on the street
    caricatures of long ago
    oh they were young and oh so sweet
    down beyond the boulevard
    knock on doors and empty halls
    and still sometimes remember
    the masquerade's forever

    when you see the price they paid
    i'm sure you'll come and join the masquerade

    Song: Masquerade
    Artist: Berlin

  5. Take a bow, the night is over
    This masquerade is getting older
    Light are low, the curtains down
    There's no one here
    [There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd]
    Say your lines but do you feel them
    Do you mean what you say when there's no one around [no one around]
    Watching you, watching me, one lonely star
    [One lonely star you don't know who you are]

    Take a Bow
    Madonna

    You're the star of the masquerade.
    No need to look so afraid.
