The Masquerade Collapse #NeonKnockout2

© Copyright 2025 Cloacina Lyrics: Curtains drawn… Quiet smiles... A hundred glassy eyes, staring without faces Silver heels Tapping time… The air tastes of wine and fear Painted lips crack when no one looks Powdered skin stiff with stolen blush They spin along the room Clinging to their fading poise Every step… A lie rehearsed Every laugh... A dagger turned. Hear the floorboards strain beneath The strain of perfect posture Crack the porcelain grin! Tear the painted skin! Dancing in splinters The masquerade collapses! Your truth bleeds through! The hall is burning blue! Eyes dart sharp behind jeweled masks Secrets flake under golden paint They fall One by one Like cards thrown into fire Every step… A lie rehearsed Every laugh… A dagger turned Hear the floorboards strain beneath The strain of perfect posture Crack the porcelain grin! Tear the painted skin! Dancing in splinters! The masquerade collapses! Your truth bleeds through! The hall is burning blue! Shatter the silence! No mask will save you now! “Listen… The music stalls The mirrors scream your name Step forward Naked Flawed The dance Is over.” Crack the porcelain grin! Tear the painted skin! Dancing in splinters! The masquerade collapses! Curtains fall… Walls burn… Only ashes dance tonight!
