The Golden Loop

[Intro]
[Verse]
Step inside the neon haze
Lost within a velvet maze
Tattered cards and silver thread
Wake the secrets of the dead
Black wax drips on locket gold
Stories that were never told
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the ghost inside your eyes
A pretty truth, a holy lie
Just sign your name in candle smoke
Before the morning heart is broke
[Chorus]
Welcome to the golden loop
Drink the poison from the scoop
I sell you futures soft and sweet
While you’re rotting at my feet
One more card, one more spin
Let the cycle start again
[Post-Chorus]
Locked in, locked out
Without a doubt
You’re mine
Every single time
[Verse]
Distorted drums against the wall
Watch the heavy shadows fall
Locket portraits frozen tight
In the pale cathedral light
I pull the strings, I play the part
I’m the mistress of your heart
[Pre-Chorus]
The organ swells inside the room
Sealing up your velvet tomb
You love the way I tell the tale
Behind this heavy, lacey veil
[Chorus]
Welcome to the golden loop
Drink the poison from the scoop
I sell you futures soft and sweet
While you’re rotting at my feet
One more card, one more spin
Let the cycle start again
[Hook]
Spinning round the room
Dancing with your doom
Spinning round the room
In the velvet gloom
[Bridge]
I love the way you beg for more
Crawling on my marble floor
A thousand souls in jars of glass
Watching every second pass
I am the queen of every tear
You’ll never leave, you’re staying here
[Breakdown]
Fuzz and organ, dark and deep
While the town is fast asleep
Sub-bass throbbing in your chest
I will give you eternal rest
[Chorus]
Welcome to the golden loop
Drink the poison from the scoop
I sell you futures soft and sweet
While you’re rotting at my feet
One more card, one more spin
Let the cycle start again
[Outro]
