He Danced

He danced for the last time
Twirling and stamping beneath the moonlight
Dancing alone in the starlit glade 
He danced the Dance of Death
Twirling and stamping beneath the moonlight
He dared to dance without earthly bounds
He danced the dance of Death
Acknowledging the world that refused to welcome him
He dared to dance without earthly bounds
Dancing alone in the starlit glade
Acknowledging the world that refused to welcome him
He danced for the last time
