Dead Can Dance Lyrics

Album: Within the Realm of a Dying Sun

In the Wake of Adversity Lyrics

If it were within,

 within our power

 beyond the reach

 of slavish pride,

 to no-longer

 harbour grievances

 behind the mask's

 opportunists facade,

 we could welcome responsibility

 like a long lost friend

 and re-establish laughter

 in the doll's house once again.

 For time has imprisoned us

 in the order of our years

 in the discipline of our ways

 and in the passing of momentary stillness

 You can see our chaos in motion

 our chaos in motion

 We can view our chaos in motion

 view our chaos in motion...

(INSERT SAYS THE FOLLOWING LINES //SHOULD// END THIS SONG)

 ...and the subsequent collisions of fools

 well-versed in the subtle art of slavery.
