Songwriters: Breckenridge, James Riley; Kensrue, Dustin Michael; Breckenridge, Edward; Teranishi, Teppei

Entertain the hope that somehow you’ll escape me
weld the bolts and close the iron gate
drink deeply the illusion of your safety
my how wishful thoughts inebriate
masquerade and revel in your opulence
writhe unfettered by your stabs at ignorance
swim through hues and whispered tones of heresy
a dozen strokes to run your blood cold enough to believe
[ Thrice Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
remember me
you look so surprised to see me here
hells black wings did i over perch these walls
for stony limits cannot hold me out
and now
you
all
DIE

this song ROCKS!!! I not kidding, it rocks

But this song is basically about that stupid story they made us read in highschool called Masque of the Red Death, thus the creative name. the people were closed off from their town in hopes of avoiding the desease that was killing the towns people. the richies had a party and Death found them regardless of the wall they build to seclude themselves. yeah.
