[Verse] Velvet skies draped in ash and regret A crown of gold turns to a silhouette Diamonds scream as they hit the stone Her kingdom crumbles but she’s alone [Chorus] Dance Marie dance in the shadow of the blade Twirl to the rhythm that the guillotine played Your powdered face Your fragile debt This is the queen’s last waltz Marie Antoinette [Verse 2] The court is silent but the crowd roars loud Ghosts of the chandeliers haunt the crowd Lace unravels like a whisper undone The ball is over but the end’s just begun [Prechorus] Cake won’t save you Laughter fades Echoes die where sins are weighed [Chorus] Dance Marie dance in the shadow of the blade Twirl to the rhythm that the guillotine played Your powdered face Your fragile debt This is the queen’s last waltz Marie Antoinette [Bridge] The blade hums a hymn sharp and clear Each note carved in silence and fear The rose wilts The mask falls away The queen meets the dawn of her final day
