Текст песни
In a castle of stone, like a gilded cage
I lived with my shadow, locked in a rage
They brought me a prince, said, He's the one, you'll see
But his soul was a desert, as empty as me
Outside he was perfect, a polished, handsome mask
Inside there was nothing, just a pain that would last
My hope had burned out, there was no more light
I stopped believing I'd ever win this fight
But somewhere deep inside, where the silence grows
A candle flame flickered, the only light I knows
It held me together, kept me from the fall
In this world of lies, it was my all
But then one night at the ball, 'midst the masquerade
I met a pair of eyes, and a deal was made
They melted my candle, the flame that kept me warm
They lit a fire inside, a beautiful storm!
Through the crowd, through the dark, through the fancy dress
I walked towards that light, to finally confess!
We were always meant to find each other's spark
And to burn together, here, out of the dark!
He stood by the pillar, just holding his glass
All of high society was just weeds in the grass
He was like a train going nowhere at all
But with him next to me, I knew I wouldn't fall
I forgot all the pain, I forgot my old cell
In his eyes, I found a truth I knew so well
He wasn't like the first one, so hollow and vain
He was real, he was solid, and he washed away the stain
And the candle inside flickered one last time
The flame roared to life, and it chased away the grime!
I jumped in headfirst, I was burning the past
Where the two of us stand, we are home at last!
'Cause that one night at the ball, 'midst the masquerade
I met a pair of eyes, and a deal was made
They melted my candle, the flame that kept me warm
They lit a fire inside, a beautiful storm!
Through the crowd, through the dark, through the fancy dress
I walked towards that light, to finally confess!
We were always meant to find each other's spark
And to burn together, here, out of the dark!
They said, Stop! Come to your senses! Where do you think you'll go?
But the voice in my heart, it told me all I need to know
It was screaming his name, it was breaking the chains
To where love is real, and nothing else remains!
'Cause that one night at the ball, 'midst the masquerade, The masquerade!
I met a pair of eyes, and a deal was made! A deal was made!
They melted my candle, lit a fire in my soul!
Through the crowd, through the dark, I was finally whole!
I WALKED!
Towards!
This love!
