Danse Macabre Lyrics

the bell tolls the tears of midnight's gloom
and opens the gates to twilight's tomb
the black sky above
and the darkness inside me
consoles me, so soothing
consumes me, so slowly

no light will shine
no shadows thrown
no mask will hide
no mercy shown

the sky tells the tale of endless doom
and opens the doorway unto the room
where our eyes our blind
to the portal opening
can't you see, me bleeding
misery, sustains me

no light will shine
no shadows thrown no mask will hide
no mercy shown

the clock strikes the hour when darkness looms
and echoes the rise of shepherd moons
the gale flies over
and the raven is watching
he has seen me weeping
and holds me in his wings

the sky it grows darker still
the white mists rise over the hill
the forces stir, the storm will break
shattering through the night to wake

of wind and sea
of sand and stone
never to be
no mercy shown
so cold and gray
so cold and gray
