Ghost Dance

There’s miles of blood between us

The desert drinks but remains white

You dance like a mirage in the distance

Where night and day collide

Standing on watch for the last time

I swear I’ll guard our past more than life

When I see your eyes in the embers

And I remember…

Twenty seven days between us

Someone must have moved the borderline

As marching leads to chaos

It’s your laughter that survives

Dancing beneath that cold red sky

I’m scared I won’t leave from here alive

We’ll be holding that front line forever

and I swear I’ll guard you more than my life

Let the dark become our shield on these fields

We touch… and turn to air

Dancing beneath that cold red sky

I’m scared I won’t leave from here alive

We’ll be holding that front line forever

and I swear I’ll guard you more than my life

Can you hear the bomb’s beat and the guns flash

Just like a song for a ghost dance

We’re waltzing as one for the last time

We stair….like air
