Gilded Masquerade

As the water drips from the sky, I start to wonder.
If I'm still alive then I have to find the answer.
Could it be that it was a dream, and I'm still beside her?
Right before my eyes a tragic surprise, the water stops.

Wickedness will rain,
And drown us in her
Sorrow and her thirst
If I hope to survive,
I must think faster.
I’m losing ground

Should I pull back the veil?
You had the best of me.
Now taste the worst.
All the glimmers is not gold.
I may be wrong but your brilliance is my darkness.
You had me convinced
that together we could fly
Until I started scratching at the surface.
And I saw beyond your masquerade!
Your body is an illness.

Temples crashing down all around me.
Panic chokes the streets
The golden city falls.
And with it our lives go up in flames.

Should I pull back the veil?
You had the best of me.
Now taste the worst.
All the glimmers is not gold.
I may be wrong but your brilliance is my darkness.
You had me convinced
that together we could fly
Until I started scratching at the surface.
And I saw beyond your masquerade!
Your body is an illness.

All shall be made clear
We’ve been watching you wander
There’s no need to run farther
Come into our arms, brother
Now we can be one forever
My blood runs cold I fear I know the truth
I tear back to cowl and stare into my own eyes!
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?

Yeah!

Hey Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey Hey

I pull back the veil
You had the best of me.
Now taste the worst.
All the glimmers is not gold.
I may be wrong but your brilliance is my darkness.
You had me convinced
that together we could fly
Until I started scratching at the surface.
And I saw beyond your masquerade!
Your body is an illness.

And I’m sickened by the though of you!

I may never be the same again, I may never be the same again..
