lyrics

Candy coated masquerade
Won't you help me hide my face
I can't dream anymore

She runs out and masks her face
She doesn't like the human race
She gets her mask from the face of another man

She doesn't know
She can't bare to watch him go
All of her time was spent right by his side
Now she is killing all alone

Candy coated masquerade
Wants to live in outer space
She can't afford her house

If I knew just what to say
She'd love again and find her
But she'll never love again

She doesn't know
She can't bare to watch him go
All of her time was spent right there by his side
Now she is killing all alone
