Forbidden Masquerade - Magnum

You were the joker that gave away dreams

You were the actor that stole every scene

What would you promise and what would you pay?

Could you be honest and never betray?

With every message and each glass of wine

Pockets of silver you never decline

Wasted and you’re still reeling

Black cloud

Forbidden masquerade

Sacred, the air you’re breathing

Too loud

Terminal serenade

Hey, hey

Just give me some relief

Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah

Hey, hey

So cry yourself to sleep

Whoa

Could be a beggar or could be a king

Fool everybody then wipe clean your wings

Blood on your fingers and fire in your eye

Make no exception it’s yours to deny

Stand in the rain and with tears like a flood

Tell everybody you’re misunderstood

Wasted and you’re still reeling

Black cloud

Forbidden masquerade

Sacred, the air you’re breathing

Too loud

Terminal serenade

Hey, hey

Just give me some relief

Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah

Hey, hey

So cry yourself to sleep

Whoa, whoa, whoa-whoa

Lost forever

Won’t get better

Under pressure

Not so clever

Woke up screaming

You were falling

Woke up dreaming

Every morning

Wasted and you’re still reeling

Black cloud

Forbidden masquerade

Sacred, the air you’re breathing

Too loud

Terminal serenade
