Every chair was spoken for. Every candle was lit. So tell me... Who opened the door? [Verse 1] The ballroom glows in golden light The orchestra sways through the night Silk and velvet drift and spin As laughter echoes from within The mirrors gleam, the chandeliers shine Every guest arrives on time But down the grand and winding stair Appears a face that wasn't there [Pre-Chorus] One more shadow by the wall One more mask among them all No one asks No one dares Just one more chair [Chorus] Dance with the last guest Round and round we go Nobody knows their name Nobody wants to know Smile beneath the candlelight Twirl through every whispered jest Everybody counts the room Until they find The last guest One more step One more turn Everybody's watching Nobody learns [Verse 2] The violin begins to cry As silver clouds cross painted skies The dancers step in perfect time Like they're following some design A glove of black A hidden face A silent smile A measured grace Yet every time somebody stares The stranger isn't standing there [Pre-Chorus] One more shadow near the door One more than the year before No one speaks No one moves They know the rules [Chorus] Dance with the last guest Round and round we go Nobody knows their name Nobody wants to know Smile beneath the candlelight Twirl through every whispered jest Everybody counts the room Until they find The last guest One more step One more turn Everybody's watching Nobody learns [Breakdown] Watch carefully. Count them again. One... Two... Three... Four... Wait. There weren't thirteen before. [Build] Every shadow starts to sway Every candle bends away Every eye is looking near Yet nothing's there [Bridge] Every year the music plays Every year the same ballet One chair disappears One guest remains No invitation No goodbye Just another mask Another pair of eyes And when the final candle dies Someone else arrives [Final Chorus] Dance with the last guest Round and round we go Nobody knows their name Nobody wants to know Smile beneath the candlelight Twirl through every whispered jest Everybody counts the room Until they find The last guest Dance with the last guest Round and round once more Every year another seat Appears beside the door Smile beneath the candlelight While the shadows do their best Everybody enters Somebody stays The last guest [Outro] There was an empty chair. Wasn't there? ✦ ── • ── ✦ ── •• ── ✦ ── • ── ✦ © Lady DeviL 2026 All Rights Reserved | Unauthorized use, reproduction, remixing, adaptation, or distribution of this work without explicit written permission is strictly prohibited and will be enforced under applicable copyright laws.
