See the lights they flicker faint
Your shadow shows like wet black paint
A velvet rope it keeps me out
A whisper screams out my doubt
Do I push or do I wait?
Am I early, am I late?
The velvet rope, it sways, it swings
A fragile thread on fragile strings I'm reaching out,
I'm holding tight
But it slips away into the night
The air it hums electric blue A hidden wall I can't break through
Faces blur like a spinning wheel
Is any of this even real?
Do I knock or do I shout?
Will I ever figure out?
The velvet rope,
it sways,
it swings A fragile thread on fragile strings
I'm reaching out,
I'm holding tight But it slips away into the night
To the night
To the night
Do I knock or do I shout?
Will I ever figure out?
The velvet rope,
it sways,
it swings A fragile thread on fragile strings I'm reaching out,
I'm holding tight But it slips away
into the night To the night To the night
To the
night Do I knock or do I shout?
Will I ever figure out?
Do I knock or do I shout?
Will I ever figure out?
Do I knock or do I shout?
Will I ever figure out?
The velvet rope,
it sways,
it swings A fragile thread on fragile strings
I'm reaching out,
I'm holding tight
But it slips away into the night
