Danse Macabre

from Rejoice and Transcend by Wrought Iron

/

lyrics

what we were you are
what we are you will be
mighty emperor
wretched beggar
equalized in the dance of death
holy father
filthy peasant
all men will take the cold hand
a corpse leads each gracefully
pride and status melt away
madly entranced in revelry
the shrouded dead lead the round
remove your sword your worthless crown
it means nothing
mortals united it is both their times
morbid ritual deaths celebration
lithe cadavers share the rhythm of the damned
fear not for all will take the cold hand
Remove your worthless crown
it means nothing
the danse macabre
totentanz
prepare ye to become the prey
the danse macabre
totentanz
ob arm ob reich im tode gleich
