Life Fades Away Lyrics - Death Of The West - Babylon Whores

How high the Sun 

For the Lovers, for the Moon 

For the Hanged Man 

For the Fool 

Tread gently with your dancing feet 

Over past men in righteous sleep 

The princes pale the life that failed 

Poisoned they too once had their day 

Dance over the graves 

And scream for solace out of day 

With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged 

Oh come what ever may 

Watching the world 

Pass us slowly by 

A corpse into quicklime 

Black beneath your eyes 

Hey 

Life fades away 

How high the Sun 

For the Devil, for the World 

For the Temperance 

The Death's dance 

In garden green the worm and fiend 

Weave beautiful each our dream 

Eat at the timbers of sanity 

And then we wake up into 

Dance over the graves 

And scream for solace out of day 

With a grimoire, syringe, a mind unhinged 

Oh come what ever may 

Watching the world 

Pass us slowly by 

Black beneath your eyes 

A corpse into quicklime 

Swords to sever limb 

Wands to grind the bone 

Cups to drain the blood 

Coins to shut the eyes 

Life fades away 

Dance over the graves 

Come what ever may
