Reflections of the Dystopian Dreamers

[Verse] In the shadows, where the sirens scream We're the dreamers, seekers of the unseen (unseen) Painted faces, masquerade and despair Whispers echoed, as we danced without a care (oooh) [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence (oh-oh-oh) Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune (tune) We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through --- [Instrumental] [Verse] A twisted carnival spins surreally around its garish colors muted to monochrome We are notes in its discordant melody discordant yet divine [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [bridge] Rules do not bind us, order does not define us. Dream reality into being with verse and rhythm. [Verse] Tatters and ribbons swirl in the air While we spin and spin with nary a care Smiles tears and laugher a chorus of pain This is our banquet again and again [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Verse] Beneath the stars glow, champagne cascades Glasses clink, echoing empty serenades In velvet booths, secrets whispered low Lies we tell ourselves to fake the afterglow [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Verse] Dance floors glisten with sweat and broken dreams Stilettos stomp on hopes and silent screams Mirrors reflect the shadows in our eyes Lost in the rhythm, we're hypnotized by lies [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Verse] Feathers float in the haze of cigarette smoke Chandeliers dim, their light a cruel joke In this theater of sin, we act our parts With bleeding hearts, we dance with the arts [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Coda] Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Verse] Feathers float in the haze of cigarette smoke Chandeliers dim, their light a cruel joke In this theater of sin, we act our parts With bleeding hearts, we dance with the arts [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Instrumental] [Coda] [Bridge] Souls.. dripping... decadence Lost... depths ... dark elegance Casting shadows... rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Strong finish] [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Chorus] Oh, our souls are dripping with decadence Lost in the depths of our dark elegance Casting shadows with every rhyme and tune We're the dystopian dreamers, breaking through [Coda]
