This is the slowest dance The dance of a thousand years The dance of the frozen statues Clinging together in tears
This is the darkest fight The fight of a thousand years The pounding of blood Through our veins In our veins In our eyes The circles of fear
I cling to you So cold, so bright Cling to me through the night
Motionless faces Park of the wasted In the pale gloom I hang on to you In the pale gloom I am safe and cool
I swim in you In your dark rivers Dive in your mind Search for your monsters Search for resistance Sink into the mud Dance in the halls of insanity Yet madness is Your highest deed Your vanity
Mistress – you made me Mistress – you saved me In your cold hands I am just a tool
Mistress – you made me Mistress – you saved me In your cold hands I am safe and cool
