lyrics

Devil's Dance

What art thou, that stirs the darkness
in the midst of night.
Come forth from this fiery tempest
burning, blazing, bright.

Art thou seeking comfort here,
does thy will seek delight;
does thy desire, dance with the devil,
in the pale moonlight.

Grow to know me, learn to love me
Grow to hate me, learn to leave me.
(Learn to leave me)
Out in the wind
(Out in the wind)

Grow to know me, learn to love me
Grow to hate me, learn to leave me.
(Learn to leave me)
Just like you did.
(Just like you did)

They come snapping at your,
Snapping at your Heels.
The women and children first.
(The women and children first)
The women and children, the women and children. (2x)

I watch these flames a flicker,
as they dance the devil's dance.
These wicked lies, they tell my eyes,
I swear are true romance.

Dare I resurrect such dreams,
dare I turn away this chance;
or does a greater, larger good,
arise from from all this circumstance?

Grow to know me, learn to love me
Grow to hate me, learn to leave me.
(Learn to leave me)
Out in the wind
(Out in the wind)

Grow to know me, learn to love me
Grow to hate me, learn to leave me.
(Learn to leave me)
Just like you did.
(Just like you did)

They come snapping at your,
Snapping at your Heels.
The women and children first.
(The women and children first.)
The women and children, the women and children. (2x)

Thus these pinioned shadows struggle,
as they speak to me.
Dance the Devil's dance these say,
and soon enough you'll see.

As I found, I was hell-bound,
and arm outstretched stood he.
As I burn, I twist and turn,
such is the way the dance should be.
