Dance Until We're Bones
Eternal Dance of Haunting Love
Lyrics
The mansion on the hill ignites the hour
The mansion on the hill is illuminated, signaling the beginning of an eventful time.
And beckons inward from the tallest tower
The mansion's tallest tower beckons people inward, suggesting a central focus or attraction.
The evening takes an unexpected turn and I implore
The evening takes an unexpected turn, and the singer implores others to pay attention.
It echoes eerie light from every window, every door
Eerie light emanates from every window and door, creating a mysterious atmosphere.
The path that leads us up the way is clouded by the trees
The path is obscured by trees as more than a hundred pairs of eyes are visible, creating a sense of anticipation.
More than a hundred blazing pairs of eyes is all I see
A multitude of eyes is observed, suggesting a watchful or curious presence.
All the room's an invite just to seize the moment on
The entire room is an invitation to seize the moment and engage in the experience.
You know it won't be long until that harvest moon is gone
The singer notes that the enjoyable moment won't last long, referencing the fleeting nature of time.
I've got your love in my pocket and a song in my head
The singer has love and a song, indicating positive emotions.
Well, it feels like we're living in the house of the dead
Despite positive elements, there's a feeling of living in a place associated with the dead.
Won't you take my hand? We'll dive deep in the unknown
An invitation to take the singer's hand and explore the unknown together.
We'll shake until our souls are spent and dance until we're bones
Expressing a desire to shake and dance until their souls are exhausted.
Drinking whiskey with the Chairman's ghost
The singer is drinking whiskey with the Chairman's ghost, creating a surreal and supernatural atmosphere.
Can't shake this feeling that I love the most
A persistent feeling of love amid the surreal surroundings.
The room keeps spinning though the bar is still from in my chair
The room seems to spin even though the singer is still, indicating a disorienting experience.
The organ's playing on to beat the band but no one's there
An organ plays without an audience, emphasizing the emptiness or loneliness of the setting.
Cobwebs shroud in shadow every book that's on the shelf
Cobwebs cover books, symbolizing neglect and a sense of the past being obscured.
I'd hold the candelabra but it's moving by itself
A candelabra moves on its own, adding to the eerie and supernatural atmosphere.
The orchestra convenes and as the music starts to sway
An orchestra convenes, and the music starts, initiating a transformative experience.
"The Danse Macabre" begins and starts to waltz us both away
The "Danse Macabre" begins, symbolizing a dance with death or the supernatural.
I've got your love in my pocket and a song in my head

Yeah, it feels like we're living in the house of the dead

We'll shake until our souls are spent and dance until we're bones
