"Days Like Masquerades" lyrics - THE ACADEMY IS...

I said
Hey you, this is me
The idealist inside that holds your love
On a string
Wound and tied like kites to all your hopes and dreams
What a tangled mess that they've turned out to be
Take a breath, and ask yourself what matters

Days like masquerades, silent, hiding in the shadows
Stripped of their disguise leave you haunted as you scatter
But you're always on my mind
You're always on my mind

When you feel lost out at sea, surrounded by on equal sides the same routine
Becoming what you swore you'd never be. Don't distress, there's a big bright place if you stay close to me
Take a breath, and I'll show you what matters

Days like masquerades, silent, hiding in the shadows
Stripped of their disguise leave you haunted as you scatter
But you're always on my mind
You're always on my mind

You're always on my mind
You're always on my mind

Days like masquerades, take a breath and feel what matters

Take a breath and feel it
