elvenking - the loser's ball lyrics

[music & lyrics: aydan]

i was told by my grandma'
many years ago, i was just a child
"boy, go and grow as an honest man
look on what you've done with pride!"

the years have passed i'm a normal lad
i won't be named in school treatises
but looking back on what i've done
yes, there's a glimpse of pride!

the losers' ball - dance with me
to the sound of the fiddle
for the ones who fall - like a cloudless
sky reflected in a billow
learn a new step for each new babylon
(build the city of lies and despair)

if you have time send a message
to every form of human life
"hey out there if someone listens
this way we won't survive!"

we'll be drawn in arrogance
hanged by the noose of greed
a new religion of violence
a bible of bad deeds

the losers' ball - dance with me
to the sound of the fiddle
for the ones who fall - like a cloudless
sky reflected in a billow
learn a new step for each new babylon
(build the city of lies-lust-despair)
