Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Step down the spiral stairs Breathe in the heavy air Midnight is calling you To see the ancient view The candles flicker low Where shadows learn to grow Welcome to my private hall Where silence covers all [Pre-Chorus] Touch the gilded edge Take a silent pledge Everything you see is mine Frozen in a frame of pine Can you feel the weight of time? Commit a beautiful crime [Chorus] Look into the oil and lace Find a ghost within a face One look and you’re trapped inside Nowhere left for you to hide It’s a masterpiece of pain Flowing through a painted vein Stay forever in the frame Forget your human name [Post-Chorus] Deep in the velvet dark Leaving a crimson mark Deep in the velvet dark Leaving a crimson mark [Verse] Dried rose petals on the floor Lock the heavy iron door My sleeves are trimmed with lace Hiding silver’s sharp embrace This canvas needs a soul To make the vision whole Your eyes begin to glaze Lost inside the color haze [Pre-Chorus] Touch the gilded edge Take a silent pledge Everything you see is mine Frozen in a frame of pine Can you feel the weight of time? Commit a beautiful crime [Chorus] Look into the oil and lace Find a ghost within a face One look and you’re trapped inside Nowhere left for you to hide It’s a masterpiece of pain Flowing through a painted vein Stay forever in the frame Forget your human name [Bridge] The organ drones a hollow sound Deep beneath the frozen ground I’ve watched the centuries go by Underneath a starless sky You are just a stroke of red Living among the beautiful dead Don't fight the drying ink You're closer than you think [Breakdown] Wait for the pigment to dry Don't even try to cry The varnish is thick and cold Just like the stories I've told One brush stroke left to go Watch the dark river flow [Chorus] Look into the oil and lace Find a ghost within a face One look and you’re trapped inside Nowhere left for you to hide It’s a masterpiece of pain Flowing through a painted vein Stay forever in the frame Forget your human name [Hook] Curated by the moon You’re fading way too soon Curated by the moon In my underground saloon [Outro]
