Welcome to the great hall of this masquerade
Those of nocturnal blood are gathered here tonight
The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death
She descends the grandiose stairs clad in raven black
I took her by the hand for her final mortal dance
The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death
They dance hand in hand at midnight's haunting strike
Remove your mask and set yourself free
Mistress of the dark, warm my cold, black heart
Show me your faith's unbroken
Beauty of the night, drifting from the light
Take my hand and join me
To dance the dance of death
Cloaked in the moonlight
Dark passion in her eyes
Rose petals fall, around us like snow
I held her close, and tore the flesh from her throat
The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death
They dance hand in hand at midnight's haunting strike
The night welcomes you, My bride in black
