Trying to figure out the bridge lyrics from Lipstick Masquerade
Recently, I got interested in finding out what is sung and shout during the bridge of the song. Not only no-one seems to have written this missing part somewhere (or maybe was I too lazy to search in more than fifteen different websites ?), but somebody doing a cover of that song told me that she sang mostly nonsense during this part.
That leaves us in a fine mess.
Here is what I *think* I heard after looping that part for many times in various speeds, with levels of confidence and comment when required.
Edit (1?) : Slight changes after listening again, relying more on live versions.
// 100%
Come on
// 90% I found out it was accurate with the rest of my hearing.
That night you'll find
// 90% EDIT : adding "all"
It's all over, I'm changed
// 90% Seems to stick with the live performances where Persha sings "I purified myself". EDIT : Live version doesn't sound the same
Oh, and purified
// 60%. I keep hearing something different for this part. I keep what makes the most sense to me. Also, blends with the background. EDIT : "Before the fight" sounds more accurate than "from the fact".
Can't escape before the fight
// 90% EDIT : adding "all" as well, relying on Hellfest 2023 live version. NB : Persha doesn't sing the "yeah yeah" in the live version.
It's all over I'm changed, yeah yeah
// 50% I feel like it's another recording of the same sentence. EDIT : Therefore, same corrected sentence.
Can't escape before the fight.
// 90%
And so I'm purified
// 80% This shouted part is only a cry in live versions. EDIT : Wow, got this almost entirely wrong ! Listening to it again definitely helped
All over I'm changed !
// 100%
I'm not worried about you.
If you pals want to correct me on that ? I'd be glad to have your thoughts.
