【Avanna + Gumi English】Masquerade【VOCALOID Original Song】

This is how it feels to having ADHD and being an introvert

are there any instrumental versions of these songs? i wanna hear em XD

me when im rotating

I literally discovered this song as I was starting to think about how I don’t think I’m as authentic as I should be with people, like I don’t even have my own opinions on things I just kinda morph to express whatever view causes the least conflict in each situation

I just change to try to maintain a seamless environment, like a chameleon, and I don’t even know what I myself stand for anymore

“Spinning round, I’ve become a disgrace”😔

This song is awesome, it hits hard and very vibing to listen to

I've seen a bunch of interpretations for this song, and they're all completely different.

Mine was that this girl is a people pleaser, and is constantly hearing what other people say and seeing what they do and trying to be like them, but losing her own personality in the process. Most notably the line "I don't own the thoughts in my head, so come here and speak my mind instead" is mostly how I got to this interpretation. I also thought of the mask as hiding who she actually was, and at the end where she takes it off, she's revealing that she doesn't have a personality outside of what she thinks other people want her to be.

Idk there are so many ways to interpret this song

Theory time!

So like the others say the girl is constantly changing her opinions to the point that she lost herself. But I think that the masquerade party represents an intervention organized by the many friend groups she made.

"Prepared for myself to get hurt" is her worrying that her friends will start to hate her

"So come here to speak my mind instead" is referring to her friends trying to get her to express herself.

"Everybody stares insincere" comes from the fact they aren't sure how to approach her, which makes her think they don't care.

"Dramatize those words, now it's true" is how they are exaggerating to try to get their point across, but she is still trying to implement it into herself.

"No one gives a damn" is her being confused that no one is angry at her acting different.

"I have come to find that you don't seem to mind my thoughts have realigned fast" is her realizing that they don't actually want her to be just like them.

Gotta wear a mask, I can't choose" is her trying to divert them by acting normally but realizing they all know different hers.

"You share it cause you care, right?" is a little confusing, but I think it means that she thinks everyone is like her, and realizing that isn't the case.

"I can't go back. Imagine that! Behind this mask, nothing's even there" is her realizing she didn't repress herself, she almost completely erased it.

And the ending verses are her breaking down because she can't do what they want and thinking everyone hates her now because of it.

systemcore. like. idk how to explain but systemcore. god bless

This song feels like it's about someone who deals with different personalities idk why it just does i might be wrong though

I kinda want a remix of this, i really like the music but I feel like you don't hear it enough, and feel lyrics are a bit hard to understand what this all references.

But it's one of your first videos here so no shame, you did wonderful more than I could have- simply expressing that I think you could remaster this with your new experience to make it better than it is now ^^

You and @GHOST are twins

Lyrics:






(Ayo perish, this is hot boy)
I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time
Stare at the ceiling while I hold back what’s on my mind
And when they ask me how I’m doing I say “I’m just fine”
AND WHEN THEY ASK ME HOW IM DOING I SAY “I’M JUST FINE”
but the fact is
I can never get off of my mattress
And all that they can ask is “why are you so sad kid” (why are you so sad kid)


That’s what the mask is
That’s what the point of the mask is
So you can see I’m tryin you won’t see me cryin
I’ll just keep on smiling I’m good (yeah I’m good)
And it just keeps on pilin it’s so terrifying
But I keep on smilin I’m good (yeah I’m good)
I’ve been carin to much for so long
been comparin myself for so long
Been wearing a smile for so long it’s real,
So long it’s real, so long Israel

Always being judged by a bunch of strange faces
Scared to go outside, haven’t seen the light in ages
But I’ve been places
So I’m okay-ish, so I’m okay-ish
YEAH IM OKAY BITCH
but the fact is
I need help I’m failing all my classes
They think that I need glasses
I just really wish that I could pass this (wish that I could pass this)
That’s what the mask is
That’s what the point of the mask is

So you can see I’m tryin you won’t see me cryin
I’ll just keep on smilin I’m good (yeah I’m good)
And it just keeps on pilin it’s so terrifying
But I keep on smilin I’m good (yeah I’m good)
I’ve been carin to much for so long
been comparin myself for so long
I’ve been wearing a smile for so long it’s real
So long it’s real, so long it’s real

So long it’s real
So long it’s real

That's what the mask is

That's what the point of the mask is

Maybe this song is about the internet? It has so many opinions and problems with so many solutions. The masquerade represents the thoughts of everyone else, the other party-goers represent everyone else, and the masks represent what opinions you carry. The character is suffering because they don't know what to do. "I don't own the thoughts in my head, so I come here to speak my mind instead", probably means how the character is told what to think by the people in their life, or maybe they have intrusive thoughts, so they go onto the internet to express their real thoughts. Taking their mask off represents how they don't care about what people think or how they themself think. I dunno, I think that's what I got from the song because that's really how it happened with me lol

I'm happy to hear your own thoughts and theories on the song!

I don't even know what this song is about but this is relatable af

I know this is a bit late, but my interpretation of the song has to do with an identity crisis.
The person singing the song gets confused about why people stare at them and reads that as them not liking how they act, thus, upon seeing or hearing what people do or say, they immediately attempt to make their personality fit that person’s character and tries to be friends with them. However, the people they continuously attempt to be friends with are dissatisfied and use them more than anything. This causes them to always feel pain mentally as it’s obvious that they don’t like them but they don’t want to feel left out, to feel like the only odd one, to fell alone. So they continue to go through this cycle of going through multiple personalities to see what people really like, but it ends up being their downfall with their friendships, causing them to feel disgusted with themselves. The people around them that care for them worry, but they don’t see that as comfort and more of those disgust towards their personality. They feel like they need to do this so they’re no longer alone, but it soon causes their mind to finally break and causes them to believe that they have no personality and that I really don’t matter. So instead of seeking help, I decided to hide my emotions because that’s not what I thought people seek in others. No one wants a broken toy.

YES SOMEONE USING AVANNA!!!!

I kind of interpret it as someone who was forced to fake all their emotions and act certain ways to the point that they lose themself because they could never focus on how they really felt
I'm not really good at writing interpretations so this is really short loll

thats what the point of the mask is

If I ever learn how to record my voice properly this will be the first song I cover

Im late but maybe it's abt cancel culture where the person who made a mistake is constantly criminalized despite both regretting their actions and apologizing. When stuff like that happens, rumors spread and exaggerations only grow more intense, for both the offensive and defensive side of the argument.

This may be my all time favorite Vocaloid song ever.
Everything moves together so well.
It an absolute bop
I love the lyrics
I loved this song for so long but I've just decided it's my favorite.
Keep up the amazing work.

That's what the mask is.
That's what the point of the mask is.😞😞

AMAZING!!

Like i understand she is not a human ?

this is one of those songs that kinda grows on you the more you listen to it

My take on it is that its about depression, and other disorders. She puts on a freindly mask for all to see, but by the end she stops caring to hide herself anymore, and takes the mask off revealing her true self.

"Gotta wear a mask"

Same bro, its COVID season

Me: waiting to get a jumpscare at the end
Video: ends without a jumpscare
Me: huh-

The song was great though! I liked the beat a lot!!

I noticed there's a little bit of almost GHOST's style in there, but you've made it unique to yourself!! Are they an inspo for you?

Amazing song!

As someone w/ autism and a bunch of comorbid stuff, this song always really hits me right in the feelings. How dare you

Okay, I've got a theory of what this song's story is:

It's about a girl who is abused and forced to put on a 2 masquerades. One says "I'm fine" while Underneath that other masquerade is a person who is crazy.

Idk, I'm probably 900,000 miles away from the cannon thing, or I'm just an idiot and either the story is in the description, or this song has no story.

Edit: I have a new theory:
You know how in "your a horrible person" a void-like person is behind lucian, well notice how the girl in this song has the same texture as the void-like person when she takes off her mask, so maybe they're the same person.

This sounds like its about cancel culture; the singer is someone caught in the middle, pressured by the people “cancelling” someone, and the people defending the person being cancelled. Both sides are pressuring the person to join their side.

at the beginning: you know what this girl is missing? a masquerade mask! someone get this girl a mask.
end: oh ok

Demn the song? It's too cool! Because of the mixture between old 1970's thing and the today dubsteps 👍👍👍👍👍

I feel like this song could also be about DID

bro i love you music how do ou make? :)

to me it reminds me a bit of my family... me doing something i find normal or neutral, them expecting me to do something else while saying what i did is a bad thing and i should be doing 'this' instead, me saying that 'this' or what they expected of me isnt right because it can hurt me and that they are wrong, then them saying that i probably am sick in the head and that i think what i think because of that... then me questioning myself and saying that "okay if that's the case don't expect me to do the things that 'normal' people do"

YAMEII!!

Heres a fun idea

try having a staring contest with her!!



you'll probably lose


idk lmao

Does anybody else have trouble hearing the words as words until they read the lyrics in terms of vocaloid songs? I feel like that's weird-

Epic

So what I get from this is kinda the problem i have, I have no opinion on a lot of things. So the main character is explaining that shes been so focused on others opinions that shes basically forgotten her own. When she says that you should pick for her, she doesn't know what she is, or what you want. Nothing evens there means she doesn't even have her own self anymore. The mask is like different ways she acts around people, so that the person would like her more. It hit me hard when she said " I can’t make a choice , I can’t find my voice , I just wanna see whats right for me." Because I do this with the simplest things like picking something from a shop and I usually just give up and don't make a choice or have another person pick for me.

Sorry about ranting a little, This is something I can relate to and Its a bop.
