South Of Eden - Lyrics - Danse Macabre

Dance of Death, also variously called Danse Macabre , Danza Macabra , Dansul MorÅ£ii , Danza de la Muerte , Dansa de la Mort , DanÃ§a Macabra , Totentanz , Dodendans , Surmatants , is an artistic genre of late-medieval allegory on the universality of death: no matter one's station in life, the Dance of Death unites all. The Danse Macabre consists of the dead or personified Death summoning representatives from all walks of life to dance along to the grave, typically with a pope, emperor, king, child, and labourer. They were produced to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life. Its origins are postulated from illustrated sermon texts; the earliest recorded visual scheme was a now lost mural in the Saints Innocents Cemetery in Paris dating from 1424â25.

I created light, the earth and the sea But who is that fragile creature That dares to challenge me? This paradise I made was perfect by all means All beings in my hands No one dared to intervene I, the sovereign authority One bite of an apple enough to set all spirits free My Godly wrath upon Thee Might is yours with a body like a sculpture The power to recreate Is a part of your nature Eva Out of my paradise I will send Thee: Eva To mankind I will grant misanthropy: Eva Out of my paradise I will send Thee: Eva The disability to live eternally: (Eva) Passion arose the same moment as Thee And thou became Godly far too close to me Passion arose the same moment as Thee Filled with rage I am burning of envy Eva Out of my paradise I will send Thee: Eva To mankind I will grant misanthropy: Eva Out of my paradise I will send Thee: Eva The disability to live eternally: (Eva)
