One Final Waltz

We Waltz to the beat

This tango of death

Stomping our feet

Until there is nothing left

 

Trained all our life

In the ways of the knife

To never make a sound

To never be found

 

The black is our stage

One grand finale

A mark on the wall

We count them all

Each one just a tally

Not a act of rage

 

The beauty is in the silence we have grown to know

It's in the smiles we will never show

Now our bodies move from left to right

As silhouettes in the night

A glimmer from the blade

When all is dark, we are the shade

Passing your ear

But never your eye

My dear, you won't hear

The way you die
