The Arcane Escape

[Verse] Cloak draped, shadow steps on a moonlit stage, Cards up my sleeve, twist the laws, bend the cage. Tongue spits curses, serpents coil in my breath, Pulling threads from the void, weaving life outta death. A snap, a flash, they gasp, eyes in a trance, Fingers dance, unseen hands in a deadly romance. The floor cracks open, secrets spill like black tar, Each one a sin, bottled tight in a glass jar. [Chorus] Smoke, mirrors, the veil, it shatters, Magician escapes, leaving minds in tatters. Unspeakable acts in the night, I play, Pull the curtain, but I’m already away. [Verse 2] Raven feathers fall, black ink on my palms, Whispered chants summon storms, chaos in psalms. A dagger made of starlight cuts the air, Reality bends; they scream, “It’s unfair!” Trapped their doubts in a maze, now they crawl, While I walk through walls, dimensions dissolve. A flick of my wrist, empires crumble to dust, The crowd cheers, blind to betrayal and trust. [Bridge] The rabbit’s gone, but so is your soul, Swallowed by the hat, into the abyss it rolls. Laughter echoes, but it’s not my own, A thousand voices claim my dark throne.
