The mysterious carnival

Lyrics

🎪 “Velvet Carnival” (Intro) Slow lights flicker in the pouring rain, Somebody calling my forgotten name, Velvet curtains moving with the wind so slow… Like the carnival already knows. ⸻ (Verse 1) Silver smoke floating under moonlit skies, Every masked face got invisible eyes, Carousel turning but it makes no sound, Footsteps vanish when they touch the ground. Fortune teller cards all covered in black, She said, “Once you enter, there’s no turning back,” Mirror maze glowing with a ghost-blue hue, Every reflection looking less like you. Candles melting on the tightrope line, Clock stopped ticking at a quarter to nine, Somewhere in the distance hear the violins cry… Like a secret learning how to die. ⸻ (Chorus) Welcome to the velvet carnival, Where the silence feels beautiful, Whispers hanging heavy in the air tonight, Stars disappear one by one from sight. Welcome to the velvet carnival, Every shadow here unforgettable, Smoke and velvet hiding what’s behind the walls… Nobody leaves the carnival. ⸻ (Verse 2 — Rap) Dark tent, black roses all on the floor, Strange melodies leaking through the door, I seen a girl in white with her face concealed, Standing so still like she wasn’t real. Moonlight cut through the Ferris wheel steel, Cold wind carrying secrets concealed, The ringmaster smiled but he never spoke, Only tipped his hat through the silver smoke. Every hallway twist like a lucid dream, Nothing really ever what it seem, Hear soft laughter echo through the haze, Like the carnival alive in a maze. Neon reflections in a puddle of rain, Whole place moving like a sleeping brain, One black feather falling from above… Maybe it was warning, maybe love. ⸻ (Bridge) Violin strings hum low in the dark, Tiny flames dancing around a spark, Somewhere hidden underneath it all… A voice still calling through the carnival. ⸻ (Final Chorus) Welcome to the velvet carnival, Where the night turns almost magical, Eyes in the shadows watching from afar, Counting every wish upon a star. Welcome to the velvet carnival, Where the mystery feels beautiful, Velvet skies and phantom masquerades… Lost forever in the purple haze.
