Let Me Tell You A Story To Chill The
Bones Out Of Things That I Saw One Night
Wandering In The Everglades I′d One Drink But No
More I Was Rambling, Enjoying The Bright Moonlight Gazing
Up At The Stars Not Aware Of A Presence
So Near To Me Watching My Every Move
Feeling Scared And I Fell To My Knees As
Something Rushed Me From The Trees Took Me To
An Unholy Place And That Is Where I Fell
From Grace And They Summoned Me Over To Join
In With Them To The Dance Of The Dead
Into The Circle Of Fire, I Followed Them Into
The Middle, I Was Led As If Time
Had Stopped Still, I Was Numb With Fear But
Still I Wanted To Go And The Blaze Of
The Fire Did No Hurt Upon Me As I
Walked Onto The Coals Then I Felt I Was
In A Trance And My Spirit Was Lifted From
Me And If Only Someone Had The Chance To
Witness What Happened To Me And I Danced,
And I Pranced, And I Sang With Them All
Had Death In Their Eyes Lifeless Figures, They Were
Undead, All Of Them They Had Ascended From Hell
As I Danced With The Dead, My Free
Spirit Was Laughing And Howling Down At Me Below
My Undead Body Just Danced The Circle Of Dead
Until The Time Came To Reunite Us Both
My Spirit Came Back Down To Me I Didn't
Know If I Was Alive Or Dead As The
Others All Joined In With Me By Luck,
Then A Skirmish Started And Took The Attention Away
From Me When They Took Their Gaze From Me
Was The Moment That I Fled I Ran Like
Hell, Faster Than The Wind, But Behind I Did
Not Glance One Thing That I Did Not Dare
Was To Look Just Straight Ahead When You
Know That Your Time Has Come Around You Know
You′ll Be Prepared For It Say Your Last Goodbyes
To Everyone Drink And Say A Prayer For It
When You're Lying In Your Sleep, When You're
Lying In Your Bed And You Wake From Your
Dreams To Go Dancing With The Dead When You′re
Lying In Your Sleep, When You′re Lying In Your
Bed And You Wake From Your Dreams To Go
Dancing With The Dead To This Day, I
Guess I'll Never Know Just Why They Let Me
Go But I′ll Never Go Dancing No More 'Til
I Dance With The Dead
