Moonlit Mask Parade

Street lights flicker, midnight's wide awake

Cobblestones are shining like a silver lake

I pull my cape tight, hear the laughter start

In a city full of shadows with a beating heart

Lanterns in the window, secrets in the air

Every pain I face is saying something rare

We'll spin through the moonlight, feeling bold and free

Nobody knows the truth behind the mystery

Come on, come on

Parade through the night

Every mask hides a figure in the neon light

Decimate the ghosts, we're alive, alive

Midnight costume parade, let the heartbeat rise

Come on, come on

Into the spell

Smile on the outside

But we know too well

And your mask hides the secret

Of your secret shines

At the midnight costume parade

We're crossing the lines

A queen in silver glitter

A wolf in velvet black

A paper-eyed magician

Looking over his back

The skeletons are swinging, the witches clap in time

Everybody's somebody with a hidden rhyme

Lanterns in the window, secrets in the air

Every queen of faces saying something rare

We spin through the moonlight, feeling bold and free

Nobody knows the truth behind the mystery

Come on, come on

Parade through the night

Every mask hides a secret in the neon light

Dancing with the ghosts, we're alive, alive

Midnight costume parade, let the heartbeat rise

Come on, come on, step into the style

Smile on the outside that we know too well

Every mask hides a secret, every secret shines

At the midnight costume parade

We're crossing the lines

If you hear a whisper, let it pass you by

Some truths will glitter underneath the sky

We're all a little haunted, but we're never alone

When the bass line bites, every fear comes home

Come on, come on, parade through the night

Every mask hides a secret in the neon light

Dancing like the ghosts, we're alive, alive

Midnight costume parade, let the heartbeat rise

Come on, come on, step into the spell

Smile on the outside, but we know too well

Every mask hides a secret, every secret shines

At the midnight costume parade

We're crossing the lines
