Immortal Deceased

Another song about a ball going wrong and someone you love who dies to save you from the evil spirits who are coming to steal your soul.
Elegant, we sweep the ballroom floor
Based on an unknown cemetery.
Full moon is murky but still sure
Overlook all prophesy.

Chandelier candle’s turn pail
A hush comes over the flocked
Strive to escape but we fail
The fortress doors are locked.

Chorus:
No blade or bullet will help nor save,
The weak, vulnerable, strong or brave,
Holding you tight and thought of you;
Will keep me running all night through.

Hide in rooms of silent black,
Color of the midnight sun.
Lose you so retrace my tracks,
Far from you, and further I run.

Chorus:
No blade or bullet will help to save,
The weak, vulnerable, strong or brave,
Holding tight to thoughts of you;
Will keep me running all night through

They hunt me down, they seek me out.
I’m fading now without a doubt.
As they try to steal my last breath,
You robbed me of a painful death.

Chorus:
No dagger, blade or bullet will help to save,
The weak, vulnerable, strong or brave,
Holding tight to memories of you,
Will keep me crying my whole life through.
