Текст песни "Dance While The Sky Crashes Down" |
 The flowers by your bed are wilting
The sun is setting in the west
A fog is covering your eyes, your stockings are attracting flies
Decay is nibbling at the boards on which you rest
There's someone waiting at your window
Familiar face without a name
One night he'll creep in like the mist to touch your forehead with a kiss
And lead you back into the void from whence we came
We've all begun to die and don't know what to do
Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too
Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown
And we dance while the sky crashes down
Like that the earth begins to quiver
And all the oceans turn to black
A ship of maniacs with knives are playing blackjack with their lives
To kill the time until the giant rats attack
It's raining leprosy and acid
The saints were taken out and shot
When some proffers you a pear you sink your teeth in unaware
That just beneath the skin lies pestilence and rot
We've all begun to die and don't know what to do
Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too
Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown
And we dance while the sky crashes down
All that now breathes
And all that you love
All that we weave
Will find its way back to the dust
A band of skeletons are playing
Don't act like you don't know the tune
Your part is echoed in the path of every dead leaf blowing past
Against a counterpoint reflected off the moon
There is a banquet at the table
Exotic cheeses, wines, and cakes
And every one of us is damned until we start to understand
That living is to gorge ourselves at our own wakes
We've all begun to die and don't know what to do
Since it hurts to pray to God when God is dying too
Takes strength to laugh when you start to drown
And we dance while the sky crashes down
When the stakes are high
Best to play the clown
And we dance while the sky crashes down
