I AM THE ONE

This was first performed at Danse Macabre's very first gig at Blush, Stoke Newington in May 2008 and also features on The Golden Age of Ballooning EP. Although recorded as a separate track, this short song is always performed as an introduction to Dance of the Dead, with no break between the two numbers. Ash and Taylor both sing the first and last verses and sing alternate lines in the centre section. The lyrics are by Steph, the music by Steph and Taylor.


I AM THE ONE
(Music: Taylor / Steph; Lyrics: Steph)

You should have listened to the stories they tell,
For I am the one they warned you of.
We'll haunt each other through heaven and hell,
'Til death do us part is not good enough.

This passion is mine, to the end of time,
You were moving to fast, the lust couldn't last,
It's not love that I feel, but hatred so real,
I was foolish and young, feelings were strong,
You toyed with my heart, and pulled it apart,
I pushed you away, but need you to stay,
Words cut like a knife, and drain my life,
Come join the drama, of a danse macabre.

We'll haunt each other through heaven and hell,
'Til death do us part is not good enough.
You should have listened to the stories they tell,
For I am the one they warned you of.
