[Intro]
Ooh yeah

[Verse 1]
There's a mask on the wall
That I should be wearing
To keep you from seeing
How I'm really feeling
I'd like to be cool
And tell you goodbye (I think you better run now)
I've been such a fool
And now it's written all over my face
That I'm about to cry

[Chorus]
I need a disguise
To hide my love
I need a disguise
You've seen too much
I fall apart when you touch me
With your eyes
I need a disguise
Oh baby (ooh baby)
I need to get wise
Oh baby (ooh baby)

[Verse 2]
I know just where you're going
And I know who you'll be seeing
If I swallow all my pride
There'll be nothing left of me
I'm so confused
It can't be denied (I think you better run now)
Either way I lose
And it's written all over my face
How I hurt inside

[Chorus]
I need a disguise
To hide my love
I need a disguise
You've seen too much
I fall apart when you touch me
With your eyes
I need a disguise (I need a disguise)
Oh baby (ooh baby)
I need to get wise (I need to get wise)
Oh baby (ooh baby)

[Bridge]
I'm so confused
It can't be denied (I think you better run now)
Either way I lose
And it's written all over my face
How I hurt inside

[Chorus]
I need a disguise
To hide my love
I need a disguise
You've seen too much
I fall apart when you touch me
With your eyes
I need a disguise (I need a disguise)
Oh baby (ooh baby)
I need to get wise (I need to get wise)
Oh baby (ooh baby)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
Need a disguise, need a disguise
To hide these tears (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Need a disguise
To hide these tears (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Need a disguise, need a disguise
To hide these tears (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Need a disguise, need a disguise, need a disguise
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Need a disguise, need a disguise
To hide these tears (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Need a disguise
To hide these tears (yeah, yeah, yeah)
