Gilded Shadows (Cover)
[Intro] [Verse 1] Gold chandeliers in a room too bright Diamonds dripping in the dead of night Velvet curtains can't block the screams Every mirror cracks with broken dreams In halls of echoes, where whispers fade Secrets linger in each charade [Prechorus] Glitter blinds but the shadows bite You can't run from the ghosts tonight [Chorus] It's all gilded shadows Gilded lies Luxury's a mask It won't dry your eyes The darker it gets The more it glows But the nightmares follow where the money flows [Verse 2] Champagne rivers and a crystal tide Every smile's a secret you try to hide Marble floors but they feel so cold All the wealth in the world can't buy a soul Golden cages lined with silk and thread A shadow of what you once had [Prechorus] Youβre drowning deep in a diamond sea But there's no escape from what you can't see [Chorus] It's all gilded shadows Gilded lies Luxury's a mask It won't dry your eyes The darker it gets The more it glows But the nightmares follow where the money flows [Verse 3] Satin dreams melt with the morning sun Silver linings bare the weight of none Lonely echoes in vast empty halls Riches can't heal the heart that falls Promises carved in fragile gold lines Lost in the shuffle of borrowed time [Bridge] In the labyrinth of glitz and gold Where stories of the forgotten are told Illusions dance in the candle's flame Chasing shadows in this endless game Every jewel tells a tale of its cost In a kingdom where innocence is lost [Chorus] It's all gilded shadows Gilded lies Luxury's a mask It won't dry your eyes The darker it gets The more it glows But the nightmares follow where the money flows [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo] [Outro] [Fade Out]
