Description
The funeral march has been replaced by a rave: instead of tears, there is rhythm; instead of mourning, there are flashes of neon light. Death turns into rebirth, and the dance floor becomes a place of resurrection, where every beat is like a defibrillator shock. Gloomy images intertwine with bold energy, and from this cocktail a strange but inspiring truth emerges: sometimes real life begins where everything inside has already broken down.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Like the words of a song, I hear you call.
Like a thief in my head, you criminal.
You stole my thoughts before I dreamed them.
And you killed my queen with just one pawn.
This goodbye is no surprise.
This goodbye won't make me cry.
Yeah, I'll keep on dancing until I'm dead. I'm dancing until I'm dead.
I'm dancing until I'm dead. Yeah, I'll keep on dancing until I'm dead.
Dead.
I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
'Cause when you killed me inside, that's when I came alive.
Yeah, the music's gonna bring me back from death. I'm dancing until I'm dead.
Dead. I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
You've created a creature of the night.
Now I'm haunting your air, your soul, your eyes.
This goodbye is no surprise.
This goodbye won't make me cry.
Yeah, I'll keep on dancing until I'm dead. I'm dancing until I'm dead. I'm dancing until
I'm dead.
Yeah, I'll keep on dancing until I'm dead.
Dead. I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
'Cause when you killed me inside, that's when I came alive.
Yeah, the music's gonna bring me back from death.
I'm dancing until I'm dead.
Dead. I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
Do the dead dance.
Do the dead dance.
Do the dead dance.
Do the dead dance.
But I will never look back, no, and I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
Dancing 'til I'm dead. I'm dancing 'til I'm dead. Yeah, I'll keep on dancing until
I'm dead.
I'm dancing 'til I'm dead.
'Cause when you killed me inside, that's when I came alive.
Yeah, the music's gonna bring me back from death. I'm dancing until I'm dead.
Dead. I'm dancing 'til I'm dead. Dead.
