SLC Sanctuary on the Dance Floor

[Verse 1] Five long days of wearing the mask Walking a world where I didn't fit the task But Friday night brings the holy bells Breaking the Salt Lake, heavy worldly spells Into the shadow of the heavy iron door Strobe lights dancing on a concrete floor Smoke machines rising like a spiritual haze Leaving behind the mundane, exhausting days  [Pre-Chorus] (Bassline drives hard) No judgments here, the outcasts convene A beautiful family in a subculture scene We step through the gates, we cast off the chains The magical weekend is running through our veins  [Chorus] Sanctuary found in the industrial beat! Gothic communion where the strangers meet! Lifelong friends under the flashing neon light Leaving the world outside the doors tonight! Here I can breathe, here I can just be me Lost in the rhythm, finding my entity!  [Verse 2] Confetti raining down on the crowd At Area 51, the bassline is loud From the walls of Sanctuary to the darkness of DV8 We found a magic that could alter our fate We didn't belong to the streets out there But on these dance floors, we breathe the same air A kingdom of velvet, of leather and lace Our private heaven in a strobe-lit space  [Pre-Chorus] No judgments here, the outcasts convene A beautiful family in a subculture scene We step through the gates, we cast off the chains The magical weekend is running through our veins  [Chorus] [chant] Sanctuary found in the industrial beat! Gothic communion where the strangers meet! Lifelong friends under the flashing neon light Leaving the world outside the doors tonight! Here I can breathe, here I can just be me Lost in the rhythm, finding my entity!  [Bridge] [Atmospheric synth pad breakdown] Industrial pulse... taking me high... Gothic souls... under a digital choir.. Anyone is welcome, come as you are... We are the magic, we are the stars... [Explosive 80s synth lead solo]  [Verse 3] The neon dims, the sun's gonna rise Sparks of the evening still in our eyes We head to Dee's under morning light Chasing the ghosts of a beautiful night Over coffee and laughter, the memories stay The world outside can have the day But we hold the magic close to our chest With the lifelong friends that I love the best  [Chorus] Sanctuary found in the industrial beat! Gothic communion where the strangers meet! Lifelong friends under the flashing neon light Leaving the world outside the doors tonight! Here I can breathe, here I can just be me Lost in the rhythm, finding my entity!  [Outro] Confetti raining down on the crowd At Area 51, the bassline is loud From the walls of Sanctuary to the darkness of DV8 We found a magic that could alter our fate We didn't belong to the streets out there But on these dance floors, we breathe the same air A kingdom of velvet, of leather and lace Our private heaven in a strobe-lit space  [Heavy kick drum fades] [Arpeggiator echoes out] [Fade to silence] [End] ···©️ 2026 Swami Records ··· Lyrics/Syles by Swami Dave
