Final Masquerade
Linkin Park/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With words you wouldn't say
Suddenly tomorrow's
Moment washed away
'Cause I don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
We both keep on waiting
For something we won't find
The light on the horizon
Was brighter yesterday
Shadows floating over
Skies begin to fade
You said it was forever
But then it slipped away
Standing at the end of
The final masquerade
All I ever wanted
Secrets that you keep
All you ever wanted
The truth I couldn't speak
'Cause I can't see forgiveness
And you can't see the crime
And we both keep on waiting
For what we left behind
The light on the horizon
Was brighter yesterday
Shadows floating over
Skies begin to fade
You said it was forever
But then it slipped away
Standing at the end of
The final masquerade
Final masquerade
Standing at the end of the final masquerade
The light on the horizon
Was brighter yesterday
Shadows floating over
Skies begin to fade
You said it was forever
But then it slipped away
Standing at the end of
The final masquerade
Standing at the end of
The final masquerade
Standing at the end of
The final masquerade
The lyrics of Linkin Park's song Final Masquerade are about the breakdown of a relationship between two people, and the feelings of confusion, disappointment, and betrayal that come with it. The song opens with the singer feeling torn apart by words that were left unspoken, which led to a moment that washed away unexpectedly. Both parties are left waiting for something that they won't find because they don't have time to work things out, or a reason for why it's ending.
The chorus is about the singer's struggles with forgiveness and the inability to move on from the pain they feel in the relationship. They had secrets they wanted to share, but couldn't because of the lack of trust and the truth they couldn't speak. The light on the horizon was brighter yesterday, but it has begun to fade along with the skies as shadows start to loom. The other person had assured them that the relationship would be forever, but it slipped away, leaving them standing at the end of the final masquerade, realizing that it was all a facade, and the truth had finally been revealed.
Overall, the lyrics of the song Final Masquerade are very emotional and relatable to anyone who has experienced a breakup. It captures the pain and resentment that come with the end of a relationship and the struggles that come with trying to move on.

Tearing me apart
Causing me emotional pain
With words you wouldn't say
With the unspoken hurtful things you think about me
Suddenly tomorrow's Moment washed away
The possibility of a better future suddenly disappeared
'Cause I don't have a reason
I am clueless and have no justification
And you don't have the time
You are too busy or disinterested to explain it to me
We both keep on waiting
We both remain hopeful that things will eventually get better
For something we won't find
For an answer or resolution that doesn't exist
The light on the horizon
The hope of a better future
Was brighter yesterday
Was more promising in the past
Shadows floating over
Doubt and uncertainty taking over
Skies begin to fade
The future becomes uncertain and bleak
You said it was forever
You promised that it would last forever
But then it slipped away
But then it ended unexpectedly
Standing at the end of
We are both at the end of
The final masquerade
Our illusions and pretenses finally stripped away
All I ever wanted
All I ever desired
Secrets that you keep
The hidden truths you refuse to share with me
All you ever wanted
All you desired
The truth I couldn't speak
The truth I was afraid to say out loud
'Cause I can't see forgiveness
I am unable to see a way to forgive
And you can't see the crime
You are unable to recognize your wrongdoing
And we both keep on waiting
We continue to wait for resolution
For what we left behind
For what we lost or abandoned along the way
Standing at the end of
We are both at the end of
The final masquerade
Our illusions and pretenses finally stripped away
Standing at the end of
We are both at the end of
The final masquerade
Our illusions and pretenses finally stripped away
Standing at the end of
We are both at the end of
The final masquerade
Our illusions and pretenses finally stripped away
