Dance Of Death (Live) by Iron Maiden

...
Let me tell you a (1)__________ to chill the bones
About a thing that I saw
One night (2)__________________ in the everglades
I'd one drink but no more
I was rambling, enjoying the (3)____________ moonlight
Gazing up at the stars
Not aware of a presence so (4)________ to me
Watching my every move
Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
As something rushed me from the trees
Took me to an unholy place
And that is where I fell (5)________ grace
Then they (6)________________ me over to (7)________ in with them
To the dance of the dead
Into the circle of fire I followed them
Into the middle I was led

As if time had stopped still I was numb (8)________ fear
But still I wanted to go
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
As I walked onto the coals
And I felt I was in a trance
And my (9)____________ was lifted from me
And if (10)________ someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me
And I danced and I (11)______________ and I sang with them
All had death in (12)__________ eyes
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
They had ascended from hell

As I danced with the dead
My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
Below my (13)____________ body
Just (14)____________ the circle of dead
Until the time came to reunite us both
My spirit came back (15)________ to me
I didn't know if I was (16)__________ or dead
As the others all joined in with me

By luck then a skirmish started
And took the attention away from me
When they took their gaze from me
Was the moment (17)________ I fled
I ran like hell faster than the wind
But behind I did not glance
One thing (18)________ I did not dare
Was to look just (19)________________ ahead

When you know that your time has come around
You know you'll be prepared for it
Say your last (20)________________ to everyone
Drink and say a (21)____________ for it

When you're lying in (22)________ sleep
When you're lying in your bed
And you (23)________ from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
When you're lying in your sleep
When you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your (24)____________ to go dancing (25)________ the dead

To this day I (26)__________ I'll never know
Just why they let me go
But I'll never go (27)______________ no more
'Til I dance with the dead
