Infernal Soiree - Charming Disaster

I’m so tired of dancing

Every night in this terrible place

Even when I’m waking

Still hear the music play

There’s no rest in sleeping

When I close my eyes I’m taken away

To spin and waltz unceasing

Until the break of day

Iron bells ring

Silver harp strings

Leaden singing

Never ending

Never ending

Ever since I’ve tasted

The banquet in that horrible house

Food or wine is wasted

It all turns to ash in my mouth

How my heart is haunted

Am I cursed or under a spell?

Spend my life enchanted

A tale I can never tell

Iron bells ring

Silver harp strings

Leaden singing

Never ending

Never ending

Is it the light from my candle or the light of the moon

That casts the dancing shadows on the walls of the room

The soles of my slippers they are worn straight through

I don’t know how on earth I could explain to you

If it’s even true, if only I knew, what can I do?

Day is nearly over

The setting sun gives one final gleam

I’m swept up like a feather

In a strange recurring dream

Dancers swirl around me

In this mad infernal soiree

Their wild eyes surround me

There’s no hope for any escape

Iron bells ring (Iron)

Silver harp strings (Bells ring)

Leaden singing (Silver)

Never ending (Harp strings)

Iron bells ring (Leaden)

Silver harp strings (Singing)

Leaden singing (Never)

Never ending (Ending)

Never ending

Never ending

Never ending
