In a town that never wept, we lit candles in our wine. The bells tolled backward, and we toasted to the end of time. Raise your glasses, fools and saints! Tonight we dine on fire and paint! With trumpets loud and dresses torn, We dance like devils newly born! Opa, opa, drink the moon! Let the shadows play the tune! Spin the priest, and kiss the beast Welcome to our haunted feast! A gypsy cursed the midnight bell, Then vanished laughing into hell. We served confusion, grief, and gin, And crowned the joker King of Sin! “Is this the end?” - I cried, as the chandeliers fell. But he just grinned and danced, like a bat out of chapel. Opa, opa, spill the sky! Let the angels learn to lie! Kiss the mask, break the chain No one leaves this mad refrain! Opa, opa, no regrets! Life’s a waltz of marionettes! Throw your sorrows in the stew Tonight, the dead will dance with you! The wine is gone. The sky is red. And still, we laugh with the undead…
