Lugubrious Dance

Serpentine meanderings
Of the chords sacrilegious
Otherworldliness
In the shreds of reality

Where the veils are obscured
And shadows drag
Can't recognize
The true self of yours

In the backwards world
From the vanished future
The gaze of terror
The mask of misery

Invert the oceans
Where the moonlight slept
Float in darkness
Into the lifeless blue

The endless tongues of decadence
Caress these ruins
Now abandoned by the world
Dreams dancing dead

The harvest of delusions
Carrion visions, strange lands
The crumbling bridge of illusions
Passing bells' disharmony

Serpentine meanderings
Of the chords sacrilegious
Otherworldliness
In the shreds of reality

Where the veils are obscured
And shadows drag
Can't recognize
The true self of yours

The endless tongues of decadence
Caress these ruins
Now abandoned by the world
Dreams dancing dead

A grotesque song of decadence
Gnawing your bones
Left abandoned by the world
In a lugubrious dance
