Lyrics:
There's an evil in all of us
Call it fortune and fame
And it knows, you got somethinâ to prove
They will tell you just where to stand
How to dress, how to act
And they know, youâve got to pay your dues
And I know, weâre going
To lose
Everytime I see this
On the news
Dance with the devil for your number one hit
Sold yourself out couldn't make it legit
You're in the masquerade
Monkey on your back and the stars in your eyes
Hungry as hell keep feeding you lies
You're in the masquerade
And they smile as they steal from you
With their contracts and claims
You give in as youâre bought and sold
So you dance for the devilâs men
And they throw silver coins
Then they laugh, as they count out their gold
And I know, weâre going
To lose
Everytime I see this
On the news
Dance with the devil for your number one hit
Sold yourself out couldn't make it legit
You're in the masquerade
Monkey on your back and the stars in your eyes
Hungry as hell keep feeding you lies
You're in the masquerade
SOLO
Dance with the devil for your number one hit
Sold yourself out couldn't make it legit
You're in the masquerade
Monkey on your back and the stars in your eyes
Hungry as hell keep feeding you lies
You're in the masquerade
Your dance with the devil is done
Tell me kid was it fun
You're in the masquerade
Light has gone out in your eyes
Guess that you choked on the lies
You're in the masquerade
'This song has been a bit of a journey for us. In its earliest form we've had this song for a couple of years, although it's grown a lot.
It's brimming with a kind of dissatisfied energy we all had while we wrote it, in a way I think a lot of people will feel too. It's a rallying cry against what's happened to music right now, the three ringed circus of algorithmically generated hits that keep turning up. We know how far we are from those perfect cookie cutter artists and this song is about that dichotomy. We don't want to conform, we make the music we love.
I think that shows in the sound too, not just on this track, but on the album as a whole. Its heavier, darker. Like we got a little older, found a new gear, and now we're going full throttle in it.
Masquerade is a song about being a musician in a time where music is in a chokehold, but just like we've said before, you're never going to win this fight. Dead Man's Whiskey will always bite back.
Lots of love,
Nico

Cheers fella! We can't wait to take this on the road!
Excellent as usual, lets hope those deadbeats at Planet Rock and Kerrang give it the airplay it deserves instead of all that 70s prog rock and Americana!
Planet Rock did actually put this on their playlist, but it never hurts putting a request in ;)
I love this track and album. It's great stuff
Love it đ

Brilliant song, killer solo from Bill, great production.
