Skeleton Dance

On a journey ill

My mind floats astray

Over withered fields

I cross the river

This shortness of breath

Between birth and grave

Fading in the distance

I am nothing

Watch the skeleton dance

Dancing on my grave

My frozen hour of death

Here I am alone

Casting my own shadows

Traversing the mundane

Desperate cry

Boundless darkness

A voiceless fear

Unheard unseen

It is coming near

Watch the skeleton dance

Dancing on my grave

My frozen hour of death

Watch the skeleton dance

Here I am – alone…

Had I not known

That I was dead

I would have mourned

My loss of life

Loss of life…

Between birth and grave

Here I am alone
