Symphony X - Masquerade '98 Lyrics
Shackled in darkness
The forbidden portrait confined to its frame
Unbroken silence
A total misfortune and shame
This mask of opression
It hides your aggression from view
This tearing suture
Renounces the love he once knew
You sacrifice this paradise of innocence
Trust the lie - you falsify the line of truth
You disguise your insolence
Don't deny insanity - mediocrity
Kings and fools die in ridicule (save us)
Save us from this masquerade of lies
A fallen fortress sees him beneath starless skies
Subsiding deeper - the final farewell in his eyes
Unspoken hero
Distrust and thrusted within surmise
Seizing intrusion to unveil his clever disguise
You sacrifice this paradise of innocence
Trust the lie - you falsify the line of truth
Save us from this masquerade of lies
Kings and fools die in ridicule (save us)
Save us from this masquerade of lies
[Solo]
Save us from this masquerade of lies
Kings and fools die in ridicule (save us)
Save us from this masquerade of lies

Symphony X Masquerade '98 Comments
I'm totally gay for Russel, but I really feel like Rod's vocals had something more powetful. Here Russel feels like he is not putting enough power or something. Compare this to A Fool's Paradise for example and you can see that Russel is not at his best in this one. In general he has to be the best metal vocalist on earth, but Rod did it better in this one for me.
기타솔로 진짜 미쳤다
4:05 shit gets fucking serious here, Romeo just absolutely tears!
Quien seran los 5 putos que colocaron 👎sordos mal cojidos seguramente
Una perlita mejorada..la formacion..con el maestro Thomas Miller...tiene que regresar este maestro del bajo..lo extrañamos...el otro gran lider de Symphony X
Antonio Ghelardi Para mí era quien le daba ese estilo a la banda; además que desde que se fue, el bajo no se aprecia tanto como ahora (sin menospreciar a Mike).
No doubt the prelude is a masterpiece. Unfortunately it's not the whole song. Yngwie's still closer to a classical composer.
Best MJR solo.
What are you comparing to what? They're both delicious. my feet were cut off and creepy as my bones. Immortal classic*****
I like BOTH Versions of Masquerade 94 and 98.
Michael Lepond bass
Play this song during a final boss battle in an epic jRPG like Dragon Quest or Pokemon.
russell don't have that bad ass and "evil" tone like rod. of course russell is an amazing vocalist, better than rod, but... i don't know, the voice of rod make the song more sinister.
first album of Symphony X was good, musically, but the singing was one of utterest cr*pfests I have ever heard... Russell brought that music into heaven :P
rod is super evillllllllllllllllllllllll
loved his dark voice
you can not even compare..rusell is another level
An intriguing musical journey with tempo changes that left me breathless.
This version is so much better than the old one they can´t even compare!
naw
the old one is great too
great! Although I hear a bit less guitar in this version
But it's all good anyway :)
Don't deny insanity - mediocrity
Rod Tyler and Russell Allen should've sang this together.
beautiful:)
Dat intro.
SOLO RULESSSSSSSSSS
shackled in darkness the forbidden portrait confined to it's frame unbroken silence a total misfortune and shaaameeeee!!!
The tale of Dorian Grey.
