I dreamed a strange dream last night, I was singing this song
I was playing it with long lost friends in a land of mourning
And pale was the sun in the mountains and the vision it struck my heart
A pile of heads and the yellow sun shining their eyes
Chorus:
There were heads a' rollin'
There were heads a' rollin'
There were heads a' rollin'
Bodyless heads of fright
There were heads of innocent people that died in the wars
There were heads of patriotic soldiers all covered with scars
There were so many heads on that mountain top that I couldn't count them all
And as the Morrigan was singing they were cutting some more
Chorus
Me and my band were a part of that strange celebration
And we were playing so loud that the ravens could hear our intentions
And as the daylight rose there were heads as fas as the eye could see
They were rolling, my love, they were rolling for you and for me
Chorus
The people were singing this song with great exhultation
It seemed that some ancient curse had been interrupted
And the crowds were dancing so wildly that I could hear them bones a' shakin'
And the band was formed by dead people that played so vividly
Chorus
The song ended up when a gigantic tornado came
But the vision stood in my eyes as I went away
The visions of men and of women dancing merrily the dance of death
And I woke up with the voice of the drummer inside of my head
Chorus
