We can fly in shadows
To a distant light
Hidden deep behind the tree line
Somewhere out of sight
With a fire that burns around us
Awakening the night
And the light of stars will guide us
Wandering through time
We can dance with the skeletons in the night
We can dance until everything is alright
And they can't tell us what to do or what to say
And we can dance all night and let the devil take us away
If you're lost in a shattered memory
Of a distant life or time
You can cross the realm of shadows
And head into the light
In the flames of the fire around you
Spirits dance and writhe
And the voice of the darkness calling
Echoes through the night
We can dance with the skeletons in the night
We can dance until everything is alright
And they can't tell us what to do or what to say
And we can dance all night and let the devil take us away
In a small forest clearing under the midnight sky
gathered around a fire a group of lost souls share stories of the trials
of their lives
In hopes of invoking some strength from the spirit world
in the fight against their demons they dance and cry into
the night. They dance into the night
We can dance with the skeletons in the night
We can dance until everything is alright
And they can't tell us what to do or what to say
And we can dance all night and let the devil take us away

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
