This is new

And what is that branch?

What branch is it?

Account is altered

And nine year olds

Walk around

In debt record

Account is altered

The grim visage

Account is delta

All yours

The web descends

Look to your grey hairs

And back your horses

About a week

A special allowance

Ran out yesterday

The Masquerah..

The Masquerade

The Masqueraderie

Like a fish dish

The grim visage

Altered again

And again

The fifty percent interest

Ran out today

Account altered

In succour

All granted

Knew your desperate comrades

Evaporated

And what is that branch?

What branch is it?

That has the pipe

Of Aluminium

Sprawling underneath it?

You rich pig

What the hell's it?

The Masquerah..

The Masquerade

The Masqueraderie

The web descends

Look to your grey hairs

And back you horses

About a week

A special allowance

Ran out yesterday

The Masquerah..

The Masquerade

The Masqueraderie

Like a fish dish

The grim visage

Altered again

And again

The fifty percent interest

Ran out today

In Bolton

In succour

All granted

Knew you

Masquerade - Fall

Fall's 'Masquerade' stands as a defining track within the band's post-punk and new wave catalogue, capturing the raw energy and atmospheric tension characteristic of their early work. Released during a period when the group was refining their signature blend of driving rhythms, distorted guitars, and brooding vocals, the song exemplifies the genre's emphasis on mood and intensity over traditional song structures. As a key element of their discography, it reflects the era's fascination with occult themes and urban decay, resonating deeply with fans of the movement. The recording showcases the band's ability to create immersive soundscapes that have cemented their legacy in alternative music history.
