Lyrics
Danse Macabre
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fools, out of desperation
Cursed to repeat this ancient hand
While all their friendly gestures
Are just a part of your grand plan
No cause for celebration
Your self-destruction lies ahead
Weakened, frigid from the terror
No absolution shall be fed
It's time to play with fire
Chase the visions from the past
And never stop till the very end
From the womb and through life
We're born and bred just to die
Can we redeem for our crimes?
Tangled and swollen in lies
Obey!
You are a servant to my will
Part of the system
Swear your loyalty to me
Or pay the price
Please can you forgive me?
No, I won't let you disguise
All the schemes that you tried to untie
There's no way out now from the pit
You must realize
Please won't you release my soul?
From the womb and through life
We're born and bred just to die
Can we redeem for our crimes?
Tangled and swollen in lies
It's time to play with fire
Chase the visions from the past
And never stop till the very end
From the womb and through life
We're born and bred just to die
Can we redeem for our crimes?
Tangled and swollen in lies
From the womb and through life
We're born and bred just to die
Can we redeem for our crimes?
Tangled and swollen in lies
