Maroon Masquerade

This is for a different project, an album by the name of "Chaos Ball". This is not a rap album and is an alternative rock album. I hope that you enjoy this song. If you have any questions about the song like it's meaning, let me know in the comments below:

(Chorus)

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Its an ecstatic feeling you know that you can't hide
It will never go away like its gummed up inside

(Verse One)

When you are young you tend to keep things covered up
Side to side like a thick layer of make-up
Some can while you can't, but hey, what else is new
"It's a shame that the same will never happen to you"

Hey, that's okay, just one thing for me to say
That one day, it'll decay, now on display
Not a burlesque, it'll soon be on the prowl
Not so grotesque, swooping in like a night owl

"Okay, how are you doing?" "Well I'm doing just fine"
Waiting since the party doesn't start till' after nine
Every time it was how well that I could treat the sting
Bouncing right back to hit me like its a coil spring
The chemical reaction all by the catalyst
A feeling like I can't move like sleep paralysis

(Chorus)

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Its an ecstatic feeling you know that you can't hide
It will never go away like its gummed up inside

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Payment inside is way more than the sum of your parts
You have to be brave like all of the boisterous arts

(Verse Two)

The consequences are tangible of vexation
"Well isn't that true with any incarnation?"
Here I am composing the farewell of my before
And even way far after I still do not abhor

Hey, that's okay, just one thing for me to say
That one day, it'll decay, now on display
No longer stressed, such a thing was oh so foul
Finally rest, will never throw in the towel

Oh well, it looks like the event will be starting soon
It's rising now like the creature from the black lagoon
Well I'll be, will you look at all their cradled heads?
Have you connected the dots or connected the threads?
The chemical reaction all by the catalyst
A feeling like I can't move like sleep paralysis

(Chorus)

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Its an ecstatic feeling you know that you can't hide
It will never go away like its gummed up inside

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Payment inside is way more than the sum of your parts
You have to be brave like all of the boisterous arts

(Bridge)

Have I taken a sip of wrath?
Did I pick what is the right path?
Will things change or stay all the same?
Was all of what happened fair-game?

I'm not sure if I want to go
Stopping now has a certain glow
Yet I know what I have to do
It's the one way to show I grew

(Chorus)

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Its an ecstatic feeling you know that you can't hide
It will never go away like its gummed up inside

Every corner in the hall is engulfed in maroon
And the masquerade is now scheduled to be high noon
Payment inside is way more than the sum of your parts
You have to be brave like all of the boisterous arts
