Danse Macbare

She herself chivalrously dances to death
A reality morbid yet many forget,
Only when they’re heaving one last breath
They realize they’ve lost the gamble-they regret

Remember
Life’s a fading light of candelabra
La vie est danse macabre

How beautifully she dances, far from reality
Menacing behind her charade-Oh what a beauty!
Just look at all those colours when she twirls
Upon the songs of death she whirls, she swirls

Remember
Life’s a fading light of candelabra
La vie est danse macabre

The wisdom herself couldn’t fathom
Restlessly chasing opera’s mystery phantom
Spending her life on reason and logic
Purchasing an end that is no less tragic

Remember
Life’s a fading light of candelabra
La vie est danse macabre
