Totentanz

The moon is rising in a land of distant hopes No soul in sight, dead leaves drop down on empty roads Tonight's the night a silver shine covers your bone All caskets open and the crows enjoy their show We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone It's one sight to see When skeletons dance on their own and And kick the dust with their feet The wind blows the melodies through rock, rain and snow What will you do when death comes knocking at your door? Took my heart, let me hold it, hold it I'm bad, but I can't control it Ribcage made of coal and stone One last touch, baby shake my bone For so long I been hopeless, hopeless No way out? Only coping Roses on my grave when I sing my song and Even death wants to sing along We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone It's one sight to see When skeletons dance on their own and And kick the dust with their feet We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone No one escapes this hole It swallows you from head to toe Curtains fall and close the show A soulless world made of empty words As you hear the distant cries The coffins bleed and the crows are pleased More decay as days fly by I know it hurts, I feel it burn But it makes me feel alive Was plagued by greed, became the fiend So the dead can now arise We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone It's one sight to see When skeletons dance on their own and And kick the dust with their feet All down the drain as tears just rain And shine in blood red lights The ashes fall as the undead crawl All closer by my side Shake it, make me feel all amazing Fading all the pain I´ve been facing Blame me for the time I´ve been wasting Dance as long your soul is remaining Maybe I don´t care that I´m breaking Made it to this place so embrace it Snake pits in my heart gon` erase me Fainting as all thoughts are decaying We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone It's one sight to see When skeletons dance on their own and And kick the dust with their feet We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling We dance with the dead Dance with the dead Dance with the dead, darling I hope you came alone No one escapes this hole Swallows you from head to toe Curtains fall and close the show
