[Intro]
Gilded footsteps echo down the marble halls
Shadows bending, shifting through the curtained walls
Signals flicker softly from the powdered gloom
Strange invitations sent by perfume and plume

[Verse 0]
Ornaments glisten on collars of those who scheme
Ghosts of old lovers slip quietly into the scene
Voices vibrating like silver in candlelit air
Promises tangled with ribbons nobody will wear

[Verse 1]
Lacquered doors open slow to the hush of the crowd
Mirrors reflect a thousand masks somehow allowed
Slipping between painted sighs and marionette strings
Paper wings flutter behind the beggars and kings

[Pre-Chorus]
Vision refracted and fleeting
Waltzing through smoke-threaded rooms
Draped in the sound of competing
Dreams drifting up to the moon

[Chorus]
Step out, faces in the diamond haze
Lost eyes shimmer in a watery gaze
We’re strangers painted gold and chrome
Finding magic never found at home

[Post-Chorus]
Go, go, starlit shadows
Go, go, starlit shadows

[Verse 2]
Angles in velvet suits trade impossible lines
Glass in the stairwell catches sparks from our minds
Spinning with laughter as the ceilings combust
The past left behind in flickering dust

[Pre-Chorus]
Movements surreal and unspoken
Truths in the cracks of the night
Barely alive but wide open
Chasing the stray ray of light

[Chorus]
Step out, faces in the diamond haze
Lost eyes shimmer in a watery gaze
We’re strangers painted gold and chrome
Finding magic never found at home

[Post-Chorus]
Go, go, starlit shadows
Go, go, starlit shadows
