Dance of the dead

Dance of the dead
dress the world in nightfall
so the darkness never ends
as we descend
into your darkest fears
say a prayer
and hold your breath
you might see something that wil scare you to death

chilled to the bone
we march around a lonely fire
the night is cold
but the light is burning in your glossy eyes

"fascinated and fixated
seeing things we could have hallucinated
and the creatures of the night
caress and hold you tight
theyve come to carry us away
quite a macabre parade
dresssed up in the lies in which you used to masquerade
in this hell that you create
we dance with the dead
forever and ever as they seal our fate"

lay down and pretend
as we slowly begin
to trip and fall down the rabbit hole
and we grow small
in the reflection of those watchful eyes
give in, give up the fight
paying for the sins
we were so proud of in life

" fascinated and fixated
seeing things we wish we were only hallucinating
as the creatures in the night
grab you by the arms and hold us tight
they steal your breath and help you fade away
as you join in the macabre parade
of the damned and depraved
wearing the lies in which you used to masquerade
we dance with the dead
in this hell that you create
we dance with the dead
as they pull you down and seal your fate"

dig a hole and claim your grave
for eternity were your bones shall lay
can you find a way
to escaped
fromthis prison that you made
its only a memory
into eternity
and you retain your sense of mind
wouldnt it be great
if we were mad
like the twisted
like the brave
holding hands with corpses as we serenade
as you dance until the trumpets sound
until the end of time thats where we'll be found
the more you dance the more you hold yourself down

" fascinated and fixated
praying that were just hallucinating
as the creatures in the night
draw you in and hold you tight
hold your breath until you fade away
join in the twisted macabre parade
of the fallen and depraved
wearing the lies in which you used to masquerade
 we dance we dance
as the dead serenade
in this hell that you create
we dance with the dead
as they draw you in and seal your fate"

will you be missed
with your pretty face
well the nightmares were just a haunting taste
you should have learned what was to come
as your stars collided with the sun

" fascinated and fixated
we will pray that were only hallucinating
while the creatures of the night
hold you near and oh so tight
they come to spirit you away
to this twisted and macabre parade
of the damned and depraved
dressed in the lies in which we used to masquerade
will we ever see the day
as we dance with the dead for an eternity
we dance, we dance
as they lock the doors and seal you to your fate
dance with the dead
dance with the dead as they serenade"

we dance , we dance, we dance
with the dead!
we dance, we dance, we dance
close your eyes and hopes its all just in your head!

"fascinated and fixated
hang your head and hope your hallucinating
is it as fun as it seems
was it what you wanted in your darkest dreams
we dance with the dead
in the cemetary
underneath your dirt bed
the creatures in the night
caress and hold you tight
they carry us away
to the hell that you create
join hands join the macabre parade
dressed up in the lies in which we used to masquerade
we dance with the dead
as they serenade
we dance with the dead
as they lock the doors and seal our fates"

dont stop dont let go
hold on to all your hope
rub your eyes make it a dream
as we dance into eternity
we are

" fascinated and fixated
the darkest things we could never have hallucinated
with the creatures of the night
that caress and hold you tight
join hands in the macabre parade
dressed up in lies in which we masquerade
are we devils or just mistakes
what broguth us to this hell you create
in your dark mind thats fallen from grace
lay down claim your grave
and dace with the dead as they serenade
with the damned and depraved
with the twisted and fallen as they serenade
we dance we dance
with the dead
we dance with the dead
as they draw you in and seal your fate"

one two three one two three
take my decaying hands and dance with me
ashes to ashes we all fall down
may the wicked never rest in peace
dance with the dead
dance into eternity
one two three one two three
take my decaying hands and dance !
with me
