I stare in the hidden depth of a face in the sand
I’ve seen the heaven and some fire in the hills
White eyes, wild heat, white light
Blood beats and the drums cry, screaming the night
They dance through the flames and they’re falling so proud to die
Hand in hand they dance on the crimson ground glad to dance
Shadow dance, shadow dance (on the skyline)
Shadow dance, shadow dance (by the twilight)
High screams as the embers glow as the colors of the night
All around the colors change and the shadows dance
Dark heart, lust brim, end life
New hope to be kind spoiling to fight
They dance through the flames and they’re falling so proud to die
Hand in hand they dance on the crimson ground so glad to dance
Shadow dance, shadow dance (on the skyline)
Shadow dance, shadow dance (by the twilight)
Enclosing their savage hands that hold me
It holds me, this dancing, it holds me, holds me (shadow dance)
I’ve seen the hay-hole guns and the mag is on the skyline
Like a penetrating rain purging sins from an open sob
Shattered light catch bright light for the high fence
Like a chilling rain dulls my pain my blinded eyes
Shadow dance
White heat, white light
Shadow dance.
White heat, white light
Shadow dance
