Dance around me
Dance and suround me
Dance, dance with me

Warm light bathes the room
I see people, but I can't see who
Burning under this light
I dance away through the night

Covering my soul under this mask
I smile, but they can't see that
I whisk away into the dance floor
Back into this glamour

Dance around me
Dance and suround me
Dance, dance with me

I dance with your hand in mine
Your masked beauty haunts me
But I wonder if it's even there
Take off your mask and let it flare

Surrounded by these façades
We smile behind what we hide
Is it really you? Is it really me?
Do I even want to see?

Dance around me
Dance and surround me
Dance, dance with me

Under this glamour
We're more than just flatter
It's all that I want
Flatter my mask to keep it intact

I crave for your love
This is how I'll belong
I think you belive the same
Are you not also wearing it too?

Dance, dancing around us
Dancing surounding us
Dance, dancing with our façades
