The Loser's Ball - Elvenking

I was told by my Grandma'

Many years ago, I was just a child

«Boy, go and grow as an honest man

Look on what you’ve done with pride!»

The years have passed I’m a normal lad

I won’t be named in school treatises

But looking back on what I’ve done

Yes, there’s a glimpse of pride!

The losers' ball — Dance with me

To the sound of the fiddle

For the ones who fall — Like a cloudless

Sky reflected in a billow

Learn a new step for each new Babylon

(build the city of lies and despair)

If you have time send a message

To every form of human life

«Hey out there if someone listens

This way we won’t survive!»

We’ll be drawn in arrogance

Hanged by the noose of greed

A new religion of violence

A bible of bad deeds

The losers' ball — Dance with me

To the sound of the fiddle

For the ones who fall — Like a cloudless

Sky reflected in a billow

Learn a new step for each new Babylon

(build the city of lies-lust-despair)
