Paradise We Pay For & The Gilded Sky(The Magical Secrets Hidden Within Their Systems)(beta)

[Chorus] Gilded sky above the market row

Gilded sky and nobody can know

We wear the shine and pay the price

Gilded sky and paradise

[Verse 1] Crystal towers where the wealthy dine

Tablecloths of woven light

Manners carved in silver lines

Counties whisper through the night

[Pre-Chorus] Cut the bread and cut the cost

Count the coin and count the loss

Every year a little less

Every year a thinner dress

[Chorus] Gilded sky above the market row

Gilded sky and nobody can know

We wear the shine and pay the price

Gilded sky and paradise

[Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hold it high

Oh-oh, gilded sky

[Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Five long years of polish and pretend

Secrets kept behind a door

Something hums and will not end

Something wrong beneath the floor

[Pre-Chorus] Cut the grain and cut the thread

Count the hungry mouths instead

Every year a little less

Every year a thinner dress

[Chorus] Gilded sky above the market row

Gilded sky and nobody can know

We wear the shine and pay the price

Gilded sky and paradise

[Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hold it high

Oh-oh, gilded sky

[Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Quiet now we feel the fray

Quiet now we count the days

Nobody would hear us say

Nobody would hear us say

[Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Gilded sky above the market row

Gilded sky and nobody can know

We wear the shine and pay the price

Gilded sky and paradise

[Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hold it high

Oh-oh, gilded sky [Instrumental Finale]
