(Verse 1)
Candlelight dances on your porcelain face
Silken shadows swirl in this hidden place
Crimson whispers curl around the hall
Masked hearts drum to the midnight’s call
(Pre-Chorus)
Veils of twilight shimmer on your skin
Secrets buried deep; let the revelry begin
(Chorus)
Welcome to the Crimson Masquerade
Where truth slips behind each velvet cascade
Dressed in rose and ruin, we intertwine
In this grand illusion, your heart meets mine
(Verse 2)
Gilded laughter echoes off marble stone
Footsteps falter when the masks are your own
Rose-tipped secrets hover in the air
Tender betrayals braided in your hair
(Pre-Chorus)
Beneath the rouge and lace, a trembling soul
Yearning for the moment you reveal it all
(Chorus)
Welcome to the Crimson Masquerade
Where truth slips behind each velvet cascade
Dressed in rose and ruin, we intertwine
In this grand illusion, your heart meets mine
(Bridge)
When the clock strikes twelve, the mirrors break
Fractured reflections of the vows we make
Hand in hand, we fall through fire and pain
Unearthed by passion, released from every chain
(Verse 3)
Cloaked in crimson haze, I glimpse your silent plea
Lantern glow reveals the cracks we fail to see
Night’s hush surrenders to the tremor in your breath
In this mask of roses, truth confronts its death
(Final Chorus)
Welcome to the Crimson Masquerade
No more veils to hide what cannot be unmade
In the blaze of dawn, our shadows fade
Leaving only love beyond the masquerade
(Outro) (Spoken)
“Strip away the mask… reveal me.”
