[Verse]
Drums pound like war in the night
Moon whispers secrets to the tide
A flute cuts through—sharp jagged cry
And the world splits open
Spills its light
[Prechorus]
Dance on the ashes dance on the flame
Who’s got the courage to scream my name
[Chorus]
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
All the ghosts are dancing
Dancing in the rain
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
Do you hear the voices
Do you feel the chain
[Verse 2]
Trumpets wail—golden veins of fire
Fingers pluck strings—echoes climb higher
Mountains quake with the stomp of feet
A black river flows
Through this ancient street
[Bridge]
Spirits in silk glide through the air
Smoke and thunder
Beware beware
A guitar wails
A throat lets loose
Chaos is freedom
No more excuse
[Chorus]
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
All the ghosts are dancing
Dancing in the rain
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
Do you hear the voices
Do you feel the chain
Drums pound like war in the night
Moon whispers secrets to the tide
A flute cuts through—sharp jagged cry
And the world splits open
Spills its light
[Prechorus]
Dance on the ashes dance on the flame
Who’s got the courage to scream my name
[Chorus]
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
All the ghosts are dancing
Dancing in the rain
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
Do you hear the voices
Do you feel the chain
[Verse 2]
Trumpets wail—golden veins of fire
Fingers pluck strings—echoes climb higher
Mountains quake with the stomp of feet
A black river flows
Through this ancient street
[Bridge]
Spirits in silk glide through the air
Smoke and thunder
Beware beware
A guitar wails
A throat lets loose
Chaos is freedom
No more excuse
[Chorus]
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
All the ghosts are dancing
Dancing in the rain
Carnival of shadows carnival of pain
Do you hear the voices
Do you feel the chain
