Dance of Death lyrics

Shadow puppets The old man nearly died They dance in the light from his hand He remembers when fate was more kind And cool summer rain soaked the land Bells in the temple, a buddah Reclines Meanwhile to the east and again to the north Shiva awaits in the sand Smooth as leather - unchained by the blade A face made of stone will remain Who will remember the love that we made And hand writes a word and the word is genocide Kill not your enemy Love not your friend Turning in ecstasy We learn the dance of death No water One in ten survive Cries of the damned flood the land Another leader more dead than alive With innocent blood on his hand Gunfire by dayligth - murder by night Run to the hills on the voyage of your past Memories faded by night Nowhere to go so they learn how to dance Their hands speak of days left behind Your murderer's your saviour by strange circumstance A lesson in lies for the children of the damned Kill not your enemy Love not your friend Turning in ecstasy We learn the dance of death Silent as angels The old man survive Serene as a statue they stand They drink propaganda and breath cyanide Meanwhile in Asia the rains begin again Kill not your enemy Love not your friend Turning in ecstasy We learn the dance of death
