about

I recorded this song back in summer of 2015 with Grammy Award Winning producer and guitarist, Larry Mitchell.

I liked it when I wrote it, but I loved it after recording it with him.

lyrics

Verse
He used to tell me I was everything/
Compare our love to the stars/
We used to gaze at constellations/
Now another girl is in his arms/
He used to tell me I was lovely/
More than the sunrise everyday/
If youre like me, youll think he loves you/
But dont be fooled by the masquerade/
You never know what he really wants to say/

Chorus
Is 'I love you for the next two years of my life'/
Youre the death and the best part of me/
And 'I love you for the next two years of my life'/
'Youre more than enough for me'/
Til something better comes around/
A new interest is found/
Then 'I dont think I ever felt the same/
He's the master of pretending/
And king of the masquerade/

Verse
We're not the first victims in his trap/
But he just cant do this anymore/
His tricks are laid out in a pattern/
It's always two years til he gets bored/
Brain washing magic takes the innocent/
Manipulation you cant tame/
Almost predictable, but still unpredictable/
He's skilled at the masquerade/
I'm here to warn the future players of his game/

Chorus
And 'I love you for the next two years of my life'/
Youre the death and the best part of me/
And, 'I love you for the next two years of my life'/
'Youre more than enough for me'/
Til something better comes around/
A new interest is found/
Then 'I dont think I ever felt the same/
He's the master of pretending/
And king of the masquerade/

Ending Chorus
And I wasted the past two years of my life/
He was the death and the best part of me/
And I wasted the past two years of my life/
He was never good enough for me/
Til something better comes around/
I'll be here safe and sound/
And Im glad that we never felt the same/
Goodbye master of pretending/
And king of the masquerade/
King of the masquerade/
Throwing the shade on your masquerade/
