1. Danse Macabre (remastered)

Death is tapping its foot
To a bewitching tune
Truly in a joyful mood
Clouds covering the moon

In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Peasants, nobles or kings
Like puppets on a string
Dance they all will
When Death spreads its wings

In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
Like withered flowers
Now skeletons in trance

One can hear the North winds blow
But louder is the violin
The living, their heads they bow
For they know Death will always win

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
Like withered flowers
Now skeletons in trance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
It's already certain
For Death allows no chance




2. Danse Macabre (lonely puppet mix)

Death is tapping its foot
To a bewitching tune
Truly in a joyful mood
Clouds covering the moon

In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Peasants, nobles or kings
Like puppets on a string
Dance they all will
When Death spreads its wings

In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
Like withered flowers
Now skeletons in trance

One can hear the North winds blow
But louder is the violin
The living, their heads they bow
For they know Death will always win

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
In the midnight hour
The dead perform a dance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
Like withered flowers
Now skeletons in trance

Danse Macabre Danse Macabre Danse Macabre
It's already certain
For Death allows no chance




3. And I Bleed




4. Oblivion (addicted heart mix)

Oblivion

Fill the goblet again! For I never before
Felt the glow which now gladdens my heart:
my heart to its core

Let us drink! Who would not?
Since through life's varied round
In the goblet alone no deception is found

Oblivion
In the days of my youth
when my heart's in its spring
Oblivion
And dreams that affection can never wing

I have tried in it's turn
all that life can supply
I have bask'd in the beam
of a dark rolling eye

I have loved! Who has not?
But what heart can declare
That pleasure existed
while passion was there?

Oblivion
In the days of my youth
when my heart's in its spring
Oblivion
And dreams that affection can never wing

I had friends! Who has not?
But what tongue will avow
That friends, rosy wine!
Are as faithful as Thou

Oblivion
In the days of my youth
when the heart's in its spring
Oblivion
And dreams that affection can never wing




5. Trojan Horse (hungry ghost mix)

As in Homer's Iliad
causing Paris' spleen
The fall of mighty Troy
caused by ingenious scheme
Approaching people applying
a similar strategy
The notorious Trojan Horse
must have inspired Thee

Thy performances,
worth a theatre play
A life based on intrigue,
so it is day by day
A friend like Thee
prefer a worst foe
Here and now this ends,
this I do avow

Sein ist das Haus des Schmerzes
Sein ist das Haus des Hasses
Wilkommen im Haus des Schmerzes
Wilkommen im Haus des Hasses

For even the lonely jackal must drink
But by thirst Thou shall pine away
Even the vampire seeks shelter
But eventually burns
by the light of day

Loyalty, comradery, sincerity
Words non existing in Thy book
Your Trojan Horse shall burn
Regardless how thick its wood

A friend like Thee
prefer a worst foe
Here and now this ends,
this I do avow
A friend like Thee
prefer a worst foe
Here and now this ends,
this I do avow
