"Glittering masquerade"

Let me see myself as you do;
Help me see what you do.
Please.

I feel as if I'm running behind within your races,
And within the calm and storms,
I'm finding all of these cases of empty lies.

I want to see what you do,
But maybe I'm just blind...

And that's not good for a poet!

Please, help me find myself,
As remarkable as you do...
Because right now?
I feel like I'm just hiding behind a mask.

So as I dance
In this masquerade...
Find me in the crowds;
Don't let me fall victim to the lies,
And let me be as strong as I see you.

For within this ballroom,
The laughs turn to cries,
And the floor is covered
In glittering monsters
Instead of dancing masqueraders.

Though I may be lost,
Within your thoughts;
I'm found.

So rescue me from deep within the sea,
And help me see as you do.
