- A Gilded Masquerade LyricsAs the water drips from the sky, I start to wonder
If I'm still alive then I have to find an answer.
Could it be that it was a dream and I'm still beside her?
Right before my eyes such a big surprise, the water stops.
Wickidness will rain and drown off in her sorrow.
(Sorrow! ) In her face!
If I hope to survive I must think faster, I'm loosing ground.
Should I pull back her veil?
You had the best of me.
Don't test my words!
All that glitters 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 your body is a masquerade!
Your body is an illness.
Temples crashing down all around me, heading
(Heading! ) towards her strings!
The golden city falls.
And with it our lives go up in flames.
Should I pull back her veil?
You had the best of me.
Don't test my words!
All that glitters 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 your body is a masquerade!
Your body is an illness.
You shall meet me.
We've been watching you, again.
My blood runs cold.
There's no need to feel alone.
I feel like...
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you!
Yeah!
Hey! x16
Should I pull back her veil?
You had the best of me.
Don't test my words!
All that glitters 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 your body is a masquerade!
Your body is an illness.
I may never be the same again.
(I may never be the same again.)
If I'm still alive then I have to find an answer.
Could it be that it was a dream and I'm still beside her?
Right before my eyes such a big surprise, the water stops.
Wickidness will rain and drown off in her sorrow.
(Sorrow! ) In her face!
If I hope to survive I must think faster, I'm loosing ground.
Should I pull back her veil?
You had the best of me.
Don't test my words!
All that glitters 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 your body is a masquerade!
Your body is an illness.
Temples crashing down all around me, heading
(Heading! ) towards her strings!
The golden city falls.
And with it our lives go up in flames.
Should I pull back her veil?
You had the best of me.
All that glitters is not gold.
