Lyrics: Come with me to the fire festival Let us burn each other blind Let us dance let us dance away Dance 'til the end of time Come with me to the islands of the dead To the soul house To the fire house To smoke and ash of laughter in your head. Sweet laughter Hereafter, everafter In the islands of the dead Pack up all your mortal memories Cloak your soul in sleep The moon is in the window And the wind is in the trees These things are yours to keep Oh ome with me to the islands of the dead Let us sail sail Sail sail away To smoke and ash of laughter in your head. Sweet laughter Hereafter, everafter In the islands of the dead www.TAB6.com
