[Verse]
Shadows crawl where the whispers go
Beneath the moon's cold
Solemn glow
A raven's cry splits the silent air
Secrets linger in despair

[Verse 2]
Cobblestones slick with twilight tears
The clock strikes twelve
Awakening fears
Doors creak open to a hollow scene
A mirrored world
Cracked and obscene

[Chorus]
Dark macabre
Where the soul takes flight
Through creeping doom and eternal night
Hold your breath as the specters sway
In the danse macabre
You can't look away

[Verse 3]
Lanterns flicker in the midnight gale
Echoes wail down a lonesome trail
A laughter sharp
It carves the mist
From unseen lips that death has kissed

[Verse 4]
Shattered masks in a ballroom dread
Phantoms twirl where the living have fled
Clocks tick backward
Time unwinds
Lost in the grip of dark designs

[Bridge]
The floorboards creak with lovers' grief
Two ghosts bound by a time too brief
A cursed waltz they reprise in vain
For love is fleeting but death remains

[Chorus]
Dark macabre
Where the soul takes flight
Through creeping doom and eternal night
Hold your breath as the specters sway
In the danse macabre
You can't look away

Dark Macabre

Hello. I am a guitarist.
I make songs and play the guitar.

Artist name: SIENTAILAN

I teach in US higher education (in a STEM field) & am a hobbyist composer writing in a few different styles. I recommend headphones. All of my music is released under a Creative Commons Attribution/Noncommercial license.

My bandcamp page is getting out of date again, but some older albums there can be downloaded for free or for a name-your-own price donation.

If anyone wants to try performing any of this stuff on real instruments please send a message and I can provide scores. Not sure how playable some of it is for human musicians though.

Unsolicited messages asking me to listen to your latest song will lead to you being blocked unless if I know you well and we've interacted a lot.

My music is written without the use of AI, though some of my older albums used jankier, older (pre-chatGPT) AI for album art.

Hope you enjoy and thanks for visiting!
