Selfish Masquerade

If I say it's alright
Do you believe it, or do you know that I'm lying?
It's alright, it'll get done
Just not tonight, no not tonight
But you know that I'm lying

On and on you'll see it
You'll waste your time believing
The waiting will just drive you insane

These castles of sand
Are leaving bloodstains on my hands
Just don't you dare believe in me

When I say it's alright
I believe it, I don't know that I'm lying
It's alright, it'll get done
Just not tonight, no not tonight
Well I know that you're tired

Cause this is my selfish masquerade
I'll tell you what you want to hear
It comes easily to me
