Well we went out there late one night
Over the hill there were the strangest lights
The sting of guitar in our ears

The music high in the night air mix

The fire scorched and flared marigold bright

And through the trees we found the gravest sight
Flashes of colour
Eyes blackened prettier than from a fistfight,



Chorus

They invited us in
The biggest grins
It was a deathday party

A deathday party

Hoguera Noche

Under the stars
It was a deathday party
A deathday party


Dia de los muertos
The best you've ever seen

Dia de los muertos
The best there's ever been



The light flared as another log catches
Through the hum we heard snatches

Of loved ones lost but not forgotten

Memories safe from immolation

Shared to spare the desolation
Stories and photos
All that escape the destination


CHORUS
Bridge

Burning
Burning
Burning up the night


Chorus


Outro
And they danced
And they sang

And we danced and sang
And danced
And sang

And danced
And sang


Till death
