Paroles
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Bid farewell to reason –
The show begins… of stardust and ashes.
On stage the Fool is burning –
From the hat the night is born.
The circus came from the other mirror,
All are whirling… no one knows the words.
The Twins are dancing in the ruins of the Sun,
The Magus laughs from behind a mask of shadow.
The Moon is crooked – it’s only illusion,
And yet… I see her reflection in Venus.
Dance with me when the stars are falling,
To the rhythm of omens and tangled dreams!
Cabaret! Masquerade! Tarot in flames!
The world is swaying – only we keep the beat!
Beneath the Sun, beneath the Moon, beneath the broken sky –
Your hand in mine, though I promise nothing…
But madness!
Only the dance and the fire in our eyes!
In the wheel of fire and laughter
I saw you… in the Lovers’ card.
A fortune-teller wept with sequins,
And the Devil played the piano of truths.
My shadow knows your shadow – they dance
As if once they had already burned.
The world spins on the rope of madness,
And we? – We haven’t stood still in ages.
Dance with me when the sky comes undone,
Let the piano play till the day breaks apart!
Cabaret! Illusion! Sweet Apocalypse!
Death in the cards, laughter in our eyes – and that’s enough!
Beneath the Sun, beneath the Moon, beneath the rosary of stars –
I’m only a voice pulling you into the whirl!
Don’t fear, don’t ask, don’t listen –
Trade your senses for rhythm!
The Sun is a coin…
The Moon is a witch’s eye…
And I? I am the empty card.
Tonight you will write your fate on me… by dancing.
Dance with me when the light is breaking,
When the last angel drops the baton!
Cabaret! Tarot! Madness in glitter!
Not a dream – but our final ball!
Beneath the Sun, beneath the Moon, with no names, no sins –
Spin once more… and vanish!
In my arms. In the circus of nothingness.
The Villain says: good evening… and good night.
Dance! Before the Moon fades, the star falls,
And you awaken in a stellar fairytale.
Spin once more… and vanish!
In my arms. In the circus of nothingness.
I – your Harlequin, your demon in destiny –
With a smile I whisper:
good evening… and good night.
Bid farewell to reason –
The show begins… of stardust and ashes.
On stage the Fool is burning –
From the hat the night is born.

To the rhythm of omens and tangled dreams!
