[Intro] Down, down, down we go Where the hidden rivers roar Leave your cups and songs above Beneath the Dancing Floor [Verse] The boards pulled back like a beast’s old jaw And the candlelight shivered at what they saw A spiral stair in a throat of stone And the walls hummed low in a dead king’s tone [Pre-Chorus] The bard held breath The paladin prayed The dwarf struck sparks With his battered blade [Chorus] Beneath the Dancing Floor There is a forgotten door Under laughter, under ale Sleeps the end of every tale Beneath the Dancing Floor Ancient shadows beg for more Step by step and torch by torch We descend through fate’s old porch [Verse] The mage’s fire turned blue and thin The thief heard chains from within his skin The old dwarf counted the stones by scar The knight saw ghosts of a fallen star [Pre-Chorus] Then deep below Where no roots grew The chamber woke And the portal blew [Chorus] Beneath the Dancing Floor There is a forgotten door Under laughter, under ale Sleeps the end of every tale Beneath the Dancing Floor Ancient shadows beg for more Step by step and torch by torch We descend through fate’s old porch [Instrumental] Fiddle racing, drums like feet Guitars awaken under heat Flute cries out through dust and stone Five hearts enter the unknown [Bridge] Not every tavern keeps its dead Not every cellar stores the wine Some hold a wound the gods once made Between your world and mine [Breakdown] The circle turned The runes ignited The sealed black air Was reunited [Build-up] No turning back No tavern song The gate had waited Far too long [Chorus] Beneath the Dancing Floor There is a forgotten door Under laughter, under ale Sleeps the end of every tale Beneath the Dancing Floor Ancient shadows beg for more Step by step and torch by torch We descend through fate’s old porch [Chorus] Beneath the Dancing Floor Hear the hidden kingdoms roar By the hammer, blade, and lyre By the thief and girl of fire Beneath the Dancing Floor We are strangers now no more If this gate begins to rend We will guard the world’s last end [Outro] Down, down, down we go Where the hidden rivers roar No more cups and songs above Beneath the Dancing Floor
