[DEATH]
This is an age-old story
Or so they say
Two men who love one woman
What a cliché
You’ve made your decision
What you think is best
And at your wedding, I’m just a guest
You turn your back on me, or
At least you try
You tell yourself you’re faithful
And yet, here am I
He holds you in his arms
But your smile is for me
And where that takes us
You will see
The final dance
The final dance
Is mine alone to take
The final dance
The final dance
I’m saving for your sake
The universe is holding
You to your debt
And in this hall of mirrors
I see you sweat
Voyeuristic spirits
Watch with knowing eyes
And our rendezvous
Is no surprise
The final dance
The final dance
Is mine alone to take
The final dance
The final dance
I’m saving for your sake
So I watch from the darkness
As you dance in the sun
Though you’ve named me the loser
I still know
I have won
The final dance
The final dance
Is mine alone to take
The final dance
The final dance
I’m saving for your sake
The final dance
[GUESTS]
The end of the Habsburg era
The final dance
Belongs to me, it’s true
The final dance
[GUESTS]
All the questions have been framed
[DEATH]
The final dance
I’m saving it for you
[GUESTS]
The final dance
The final dance
Belongs to him, it’s true
The final dance
The final dance
He’s saving it for-
[DEATH]
You!
