Masquerade of Lies

Welcome to the Masquerade Ball Your mask is a cover for all your lies I told you that to this dance you were not welcome No extension of invitations did you receive I will unmask you and you will stand in the center for all to see Your words are meaningless You will lie down in the pile of lies you have created Let us dance so I can be close to you Grab your mask and embed my fingers in order to deface you I will drive a stake through your heart It is cold and has no life in it I will eat it for I hunger for vengeance Your cold and lifeless body left in the center of the room Ballads and a waltz danced in your name Twirls around you as you lay in your bed Beheaded and placed on a plate Posted on the mantle as a trophy We will feast on your remains A celebration for all to enjoy Lies you wish to tell A consequence you will pay Welcome to the Masquerade Ball

Thank you for your kind words. Needless to say I was not very happy that day but it worked out for me. Especially when I can put my feelings into words and receive an ok for feeling like that.
