And the night comes again to the circle studded sky
The stars settle slowly, in loneliness they lie
'Til the universe explodes as a falling star is raised
Planets are paralyzed; the mountains are amazed
But they all glow brighter from the brilliance of the blaze
With the speed of insanity, then he dies
In the green fields a-turning, a baby is born
His cries crease the wind and mingle with the morn
An a**ault upon the order, the changing of the guard
Chosen for a challenge that is hopelessly hard
And the only single sighing is the sighing of the stars
But to the silence of distance they are sworn
So dance dance dance
Teach us to be true
Come dance dance dance
Cause we love you
Images of innocence charge him to go on
But the decadence of destiny is looking for a pawn
To a nightmare of knowledge he opens up the gate
A blinding revelation is laid upon his plate
That beneath the greatest love there is a hurricane of hate
And God help the critic of the dawn
So he stands on the sea and he shouts to the shore
But the louder that he screams the longer he's ignored
For the wine of oblivion is drunk to the dregs;
The merchants of the ma**es almost have to be begged
'Til the giant is aware that someone's pulling at his leg
And someone is tapping at the door
To dance dance dance
Teach us to be true
Come dance dance dance
Cause we love you
Then his message gathers meaning and it spreads accross the land
The rewarding of the fame is the falling of the man
For ignorance is everywhere and people have their way
Success is an enemy to the losers of the day
In the shadows of the churches, who knows what they pray
And blood is the language of the band
The Spanish bulls are beaten; the crowd is soon beguiled
The matador is beautiful, a symphony of style
The excitement is estatic, pa**ion places bets
Gracefully he bows to the ovations that he gets
But the hands that are applauding him are slippery with sweat
And saliva is falling from their smiles
So dance dance dance
Teach us to be true
Come dance dance dance
Cause we love you
Then this overflow of life is crushed into a lyre
The gentle soul is ripped apart and tossed into the fire
It's the d**h of beauty, the victory of night
Truth becomes a tragedy limping from the light
All the heavens are horrified, they stagger at the sight
And the cross is trembling with desire
They say they can't believe it, it's a sacreligious shame
Now, who would want to hurt such a hero of the game?
But you know I predicted it; I knew he had to fall
How did it happen? I hope his suffering was small
Tell me every detail, I've got to know it all
And do you have a picture of the pain?
So dance dance dance
Teach us to be true
Come dance dance dance
Cause we love you
Time takes a toll and the memory fades
But his glory is growing in the magic that he made
Reality is ruined; there's nothing more to fear
The drama is distorted into what they want to hear
Swimming in their sorrow, in the twisting of a tear
As they wait for the new thrill parade
The eyes of the rebel have been branded by the blind
To the safety of sterility the threat has been refined
The child was created; to the slaughterhouse he's led
So good to be alive when the eulogy is read
The climax of emotion, the worship of the dead
As the cycle of sacrifice unwinds
So dance dance dance
Teach us to be true
Come dance dance dance
Cause we love you
And the night comes again to the circle studded sky
The stars settle slowly, in loneliness they lie
'Til the universe expodes as a falling star is raised
Planets are paralyzed, mountains are amazed
But they all glow brighter from the briliance of the blaze
With the speed of insanity, then he dies
