Dancing in Oblivion
Walk into oblivion
And face the darkness
You can see in the darkness
Dance with the devil
And feel the heat
That can warm you
Only in hell
Make your blood boil
Fill you with desire
The light cannot bring you
Swim in the oblivion
Let it wrap around your body
Take you to the inviting cold
Seek Satan’s fire
The desire you feel only
Here
Send away the sun
Hide from the moon
Frolic here amidst the flames
Where the faces of your
Brothers and sisters
Laugh with you
Quick steps in the flames
Of embracing oblivion
The warmth of darkness
The ecstasy of the pain
Look into the eyes of
The One
Who guides
And leads the dance
