    Happy Halloween!
    This video is a mess lmao I had a very different idea for what I was going to do, but as it turns out, I don't know how to do the thing I was going to do that I thought was going to be simple and easy, so instead you're getting this lol
    I'm very happy with the audio itself, so just pretend the video is like, way better than it really is.
    For the lyrics, I kind of wanted to do something that sounded slightly southern gothic??? Thus "a-swaying" was born, and although it's a bit of an odd translation choice, personally I think it worked out well.

    Holy shit, I have been waiting for such a long time for someone to cover this song in English, and I never thought I'd actually be able to listen to one
    You did such a good job with the lyrics, and I absolutely love the vocals, and so the visuals with the changing face pattern was a really really nice touch, it's such an amazing cover overall 🧡

    Lyrics for people like me who find it easier to sing along when they have all the lyrics in front of them :)
    Carcasses a’ swaying in the graveyard are waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying in the graveyard are waiting
    Twitching in the night
    Twitching in the night
    Twitching in the night
    Full of fright but unable to fight whatever's possessing me
    Misery
    Misery
    Misery will be the
    Guide for me as I step down this path, the fallen tread
    See the carcasses that twist and sway
    (That twist and sway)
    Hypnotize and twist your thoughts away
    Pappara para
    Hear it loud and clear, the crows are cawing, lend an ear
    Don’t you shed a tear, oh brother, sister, comе here
    Come join this wondеrful, wonderful paradise, paradise lost
    Come and dance?
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Living is only delaying your decaying
    Sing with glee, the rotting beat will penetrate your heart and carry in the gaping hole it brings a very merry tune
    This is a time for joy
    A time for fun
    A time to sway
    Come on and join us all
    Our bonds won't ever fade
    So make haste before the evil demons take your place
    Come, and let us sway and dance the night away
    Cha-cha-ooh~!
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    (Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting)
    So that you may sway the right way
    So that you may sway the right way
    So that you may sway the right way
    Heed the words I say
    Spilling just a little lot of blood
    Just a drip and drop begins to flood
    And then you're ready
    Let the hatred that you hold in your heart fuel your pain
    Send your soul, release your thoughts spinning in your brain
    Step foward
    One more
    One more
    One more
    Come and join me!
    Come and dance!
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Dear child, worry not, for hell will be your home
    Oily lipids in the folds of your brain flow like rotting rivers out your nose and waterfalls fall to the hallowed ground
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Living is only delaying your decaying
    Sing with glee, the rotting beat will penetrate your heart and carry in the gaping hole it brings a very merry tune
    This is a time for joy
    A time for fun
    A time to sway
    It isn’t hard to see that you deserve to stay
    So make haste before the evil demons take your place
    Come and let us sway and dance the night a-
    Let us sway and dance the night a-
    Let us sway and dance the night away
    Cha-cha-ooh~!
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    Carcasses a’ swaying, waiting
    This is a time for joy
    A time for fun
    A time to sway
    Come on and join us all
    Our bonds won't ever fade
    So make haste before the evil demons take your place
    Come and let us sway and dance the night a-
    Let us sway and dance the night a-
    Let us sway and dance the night away

  • @boiyobastrr_
    @boiyobastrr_ 4 месяца назад

    with the original lyrics, it’s very obvious that the dancing corpses are encouraging suicide. very sinister stuff. but with this version, that message is less obvious; it feels to me more like the acceptance of death as it is. A meeting with the dead and befriending them, dancing with them in their melancholic song. “living is only delaying your decaying” is honestly a true statement in my mind, so the dead in this version feel more trustworthy rather than sinister. this is the only way i wish to read this song now, so thank you :)
