For the Lovers, for the Moon
For the Hanged Man
For the Fool
Tread gently with your dancing feet
Over past men in righteous sleep
The princes pale the life that failed
Poisoned they too once had their day
Dance over the graves
And scream for solace out of day
With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged
Oh come what ever may
Watching the world
Pass us slowly by
A corpse into quicklime
Black beneath your eyes
Hey
Life fades away
How high the Sun
For the Devil, for the World
For the Temperance
The Death's dance
In garden green the worm and fiend
Weave beautiful each our dream
Eat at the timbers of sanity
And then we wake up into
Dance over the graves
And scream for solace out of day
With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged
Oh come what ever may
Watching the world
Pass us slowly by
A corpse into quicklime
Black beneath your eyes
Swords to sever limb
Wands to grind the bone
Cups to drain the blood
Coins to shut the eyes
Life fades away
Dance over the graves
Come what ever may
How high the Sun For the Lovers, for the Moon For the Hanged Man For the Fool Tread gently with your dancing feet Over past men in righteous sleep The princes pale the life that failed Poisoned they too once had their day Dance over the graves And scream for solace out of day With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged Oh come what ever may Watching the world Pass us slowly by A corpse into quicklime Black beneath your eyes Hey Life fades away How high the Sun For the Devil, for the World For the Temperance The Death's dance In garden green the worm and fiend Weave beautiful each our dream Eat at the timbers of sanity And then we wake up into Dance over the graves And scream for solace out of day With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged Oh come what ever may Watching the world Pass us slowly by A corpse into quicklime Black beneath your eyes Swords to sever limb Wands to grind the bone Cups to drain the blood Coins to shut the eyes Life fades away Dance over the graves Come what ever may Explain Request ×
