We lost control

I see the lights reflected in your drink We’re on the edge, standing on the brink You smile at me, a perfect work of art But there’s a cold wind blowing through your heart I trace the lines, the shadows on your skin Where does the lie end? Where do I begin? (Pre-Chorus) Now the world is waking up But we are falling down Yeah, we’re the kings and queens Of this ghost town Oh, tonight could be the greatest high Watching the universe go by But I’m looking at eyes without a soul We have it all, but we lost control Yeah, we’re dancing on the ceiling, shouting at the moon But your face is just a mask inside this empty room (The greatest lie, the sweetest gloom) You speak in riddles, velvet on your tongue Songs of forever that remain unsung It feels like magic, feels like destiny But it’s just a trick of light and chemistry The smoke clears out, the mirrors start to crack There is no future and there is no turning back Time is slipping through our hands Like grains of golden sand Yeah, we’re the legends here In this wasteland Oh, tonight could be the greatest high Watching the universe go by But I’m looking at eyes without a soul We have it all, but we lost control Yeah, we’re dancing on the ceiling, shouting at the moon But your face is just a mask inside this empty room Don’t look at me! Don’t look at me with that vacant stare! I’m reaching out, but you’re not there! It’s a hollow dream! A silent scream! We’re burning bright, but we’re burning out!
