Masked Betrayer
Nervosa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Attention whore
Hate the way you selfish self comes out
Ya' hide it well
Pretend to be a saint behind your wall
Empty mind
Feed your jealousy with my disgrace
Empty life
Laugh at my despair through your mind games

A devil inside, you can't fool me, i know the real you
Your lies for me are useless, i know your mask will fall

Stabs the back
Masked betrayer




Integrity lack
Masked betrayer
