Skeleton Dance
Eternal Dance of Shadows: A Poetic Journey through Life and Death
Lyrics
On a journey ill
Embarking on a challenging journey
My mind floats astray
My thoughts wander aimlessly
Over withered fields
Across barren and lifeless fields
I cross the river
Crossing a symbolic river
This shortness of breath
Feeling a sense of breathlessness
Between birth and grave
In the fleeting span from birth to grave
Fading in the distance
Diminishing into the distance
I am nothing
A realization of insignificance
Watch the skeleton dance
Observing death's symbolic dance
Dancing on my grave
Dancing rituals occurring on one's future resting place
My frozen hour of death
A moment of inevitable death
Watch the skeleton dance
Repeating the observation of death's dance
On my grave
On the individual's grave
My frozen hour of death
Reiterating the frozen moment of death
Here I am alone
A state of loneliness is acknowledged
Casting my own shadows
Casting shadows on one's own existence
Traversing the mundane
Navigating through the ordinary and mundane
Desperate cry
An expression of desperation and anguish
Boundless darkness
An infinite expanse of darkness
A voiceless fear
Fear without a voice
Unheard, unseen
Unnoticed and unheard
It is coming near
An approaching, inevitable threat
Watch the skeleton dance
Witnessing death's dance once more
Dancing on my grave
Dancing rituals on the individual's future grave
My frozen hour of death
Revisiting the frozen moment of death
Watch the skeleton dance
Continuation of observing death's dance
Here I am, alone
Reaffirming the state of solitude
Had I not known
A reflection on the awareness of one's death
That I was dead
Realizing one's own deceased state
I would have mourned
If unaware of death, mourning would have occurred
My loss of life
Reflecting on the loss of life
Loss of life
Emphasizing the concept of life's end
Watch the skeleton dance
Observing death's dance once more
Dancing on my grave
Dancing rituals on the individual's future resting place
My frozen hour of death
Revisiting the frozen moment of death
Watch the skeleton dance
Continuation of witnessing death's dance
On my grave
On the individual's grave
My frozen hour of death
Reiterating the frozen moment of death
Between birth and grave
In the span from birth to grave
Here I am alone
Acknowledging solitude once again
