This evening it's the great ball
Dust some colors on over your pale thoughts
We're going to make the stars rock
Much higher,
Much higher, and more
This evening, it's the big day
Let's go see the drums fall over
The soldiery marching band
Rings hollow,
Rings hollow, once more (and more, more, more, more...)
Come on
The end is soon
For this world
That doesn't hear a thing
Come on
Let's ring the tocsin 1
Make their old discourse waltz out
Come dance, it's our turn
This evening it's the great evening
Our dreams get draped in velvet
We rush in for a new start
Much prettier
Much prettier, and even more (and more, more, more, more...)
Come on
The end is soon
For this world
That doesn't hear a thing
Come on
Let's ring the tocsin
Make their old discourse waltz out
Come dance, it's our turn
I drank Love
And it's bitter breath
I saw towers
Fall to the ground
I saw black gold
Bleed the sea
All eyes
on ephemera
I see bloom
This new day
I believe the laughter
Of the lunatic up there
I want to grasp
Every mystery
And make away
With ephemerality
This evening it's the great ball
Dust some colors on over your pale thoughts
We're going to make the stars rock
Much higher,
Much higher
Come on
The end is soon
For this world
That doesn't hear a thing
Come on
Let's ring the tocsin
Make their old discourse waltz out
Come dance, it's our turn
Come on
The end is soon
For this world
That doesn't hear a thing
Come on
Let's ring the tocsin
Let's love on their rubbles
Let's love for a new world
