Lyrics
Intro FX – soft glitch, pulsing lights, distorted stage whisper
(Spoken, filtered voice)
“Masques on. Spotlight fades.
Now… reveal yourself.”
Female Voice – spoken-sing, airy beat
Tu disais que c’était vrai
Mais chaque mot glissait
Un reflet sans lumière
Un masque sans frontière
Male Voice – rhythmic flow, dry vocal with reverb hits
Tu voulais des ombres
Des jeux sous les projecteurs
Moi, j’étais la réplique
Et toi… la rumeur
Chorus – Both, layered modern harmony
Masques… miroirs
Rien n’est clair dans ton regard
Masques… histoires
On joue faux, quelque part
FX Interlude – backstage buzz, footsteps, layered whispers in French
(Chuchotements: “Regarde-moi… Mens encore… Disparais…”)
Female Voice – vocoder shimmer
Je ne veux plus ton décor
Je veux danser, corps à corps
Plus de scène, plus d’effort
Je m’efface… et j’explore
Male Voice – deep synth backing, half-sung
J’efface les lignes, les rôles
Je quitte ta pièce sans paroles
Pas de final, pas d’applaudissements
Juste le vrai — maintenant
Final Chorus – Both, pulsing tempo, effects layering
Masques… miroirs
Je me vois — sans fard
Masques… plus d’ivoire
Juste moi… dans le noir
Outro FX – heartbeat synth, electric curtain drop, light inhale
“Masques down. Scene closed.”
📝ENGLISH:
Masques on.
Spotlight fades.
Now… reveal yourself.
You said it was all true
But every word slipped away
A reflection without light
A mask without a boundary
You wanted shadows
Games under the lights
I was the reply
And you… the rumor
Masques… mirrors
Nothing’s clear in your stare
Masques… stories
We fake it, somewhere
Look at me…
Lie again…
Disappear…
I don’t want your stage anymore
I want to dance, body to body
No more scenes, no more effort
I fade… and explore
I erase the lines, the roles
I leave your play without words
No finale, no applause
Just the truth — at last
Masques… mirrors
I see myself — unmasked
Masques… no more ivory
Just me… in the dark
Masques down.
Scene closed.
