Skull City

In the city of light,

in the valley of skulls

our spirits dance.

 

In the city of light,

in the valley of skulls

our spirits dance baby.

dancing forever and ever

and ever baby.

 

Our ghosts dance in the city of skulls.

You by my side baby.

In the valley of light we move side by side, never still.

In the city of skulls we dance baby.

 

Our ghost dancing, dancing, dancing.

Our ghosts dance in the city of skulls.

 

In the city of light,

in the valley of skulls

our spirits dance.

 

In the city of light,

in the valley of skulls

our spirits dance baby.

dancing forever and ever

and ever baby.

destroyed citytrapped spirits dancingalive in death
