[Intro – flickering candlelight, distant thunder]
Shadows dance upon the wall
Silence echoes through the hall
[Verse 1 – low piano notes, dark atmosphere]
Velvet curtains drawn against the night
Only candles cast a flickering light
You left your mark upon this empty bed
A memory painted in a shade of red
The glass is shattered on the floor below
Watching all the bitter feelings grow
[Pre-Chorus – rising tension, ethereal pads]
One last taste of poison on my lips
Feeling how the heavy darkness slips
Into every corner of my mind
Leaving all the broken dreams behind
[Chorus – powerful vocals, cinematic strings]
Spilled red wine on white satin sheets
Where the bitter and the lonely meets
A crimson stain that never fades away
Like the words we never dared to say
Tangled in the silk and in the lies
Underneath the cold and hollow skies
[Verse 2 – rhythmic bass, haunting melody]
Lace and iron frame this lonely room
Wrapped inside a beautiful costume
I trace the edges of the velvet ghost
The one that I will always miss the most
The fragrance of the rose begins to die
Beneath the weight of every whispered lie
[Pre-Chorus – building intensity]
One last taste of poison on my lips
Feeling how the heavy darkness slips
Into every corner of my mind
Leaving all the broken dreams behind
[Chorus – maximum emotional depth]
Spilled red wine on white satin sheets
Where the bitter and the lonely meets
A crimson stain that never fades away
Like the words we never dared to say
Tangled in the silk and in the lies
Underneath the cold and hollow skies
[Bridge – stripped back, intimate piano]
Cyanide kiss upon the glass
Watching all the golden moments pass
Nothing left but shadows in the rain
And the beauty of this elegant pain
[Solo – weeping violin melody]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Chorus – grand finale, layered harmonies]
Spilled red wine on white satin sheets
Where the bitter and the lonely meets
A crimson stain that never fades away
Like the words we never dared to say
Tangled in the silk and in the lies
Underneath the cold and hollow skies
[Outro – fading piano, soft whisper]
The stain remains when you are gone
Waiting for a cold and greyish dawn
