Skeleton Dance

Citadel (FIN)

Band/Artist: Citadel (FIN)

Album: Transition

Valiant heroes of our time or the legion of the damned?
Saviors of all humanity or profaners of the Lamb?

Selling their lives for a dime they know what they are –
A subject to sacrifice

Nations cry no but the're all set to go
Obsession for power dictates the rules

When will the gale arise?
When will the madness be unleashed?
When will the united fools begin to practice what they preach?
Caught in the calm before the storm
We don't stand a chance
This crusade/charade will turn into another skeleton dance

I can imagine the day it begins
Lead us into war!
But won't it be like a spreading disease?
So out of control!

Pyres will shine, before long realized that this –
The third one – will be the last
Playing with fire doom in their hands
Marching into the holy, oily land

What goes on in their minds?
Fear or eagerness to die for the cause of the
Noble, the righteous, the brave?
For the cash or for the conviction?
Death is the only prediction
Somewhere out there the desert awaits...

And so the gale arose
The madness was finally unleashed
The united fools began to practice what they preached
Caught in the hands of storm
There never was a chance to avoid these dreadful visions
Of the skeleton dance
