Dance of Death

[Verse] In Holbein's painting, skeletons twirl and sway Emperor and pauper, all on the same path they stray Wealth and glory fade, against death's might None can escape, the reaper's scythe so bright [Chorus] Oh, fleeting life, like cherry blossoms in bloom Their petals fall, accepting our destined doom Time's precious sands, like jewels we hold Shine brightly, live with passion, stories yet untold [Verse] From child to elder, all must join the dance Death's macabre waltz, a universal trance Each fleeting moment, a treasure to behold Cherish the present, let your spirit unfold (Chorus) Oh, fleeting life, like cherry blossoms in bloom Their petals fall, accepting our destined doom Time's precious sands, like jewels we hold Shine brightly, live with passion, stories yet untold [Interval] [Outro] What lies beyond the dance of death's cold embrace? Eternal slumber, or a new, uncharted space? Still, we shall live, with hearts ablaze Grateful for each breath, in life's fleeting maze [Ending]
