[Verse 1] Curtains drawn, the city sleeps, We guard the secret no soul keeps. Masks of velvet, words of chains, Power hidden flows through veins. [Chorus] Ivory throne, we rule the night, Lies and order dressed in white. Sworn in silence, bound by fear, The Masquerade is all we hear. [Verse 2] Oaths unbroken, debts are made, Every whisper a hidden blade. Obey the law, deny the flame, The Tower stands, the world’s the same. [Bridge] Beneath the crown, the Beast still calls, Behind the glass are crumbling walls. But still we smile, and still we reign, Our order written in your pain. [Chorus] Ivory throne, we rule the night, Lies and order dressed in white. Sworn in silence, bound by fear, The Masquerade is all we hear.
