Children of the nightshade
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wounded by the sicklefall
blood drenched and dressed up for violence
we now hear the black bell toll
hag-ridden they will awake
chased by those who lurked in wait
man´s bequest will be his end
regnum silvae
Sharpen now thy vicious claws
inhale deep the smell of vengeance
kill the weak who cross thy way
Ornament thy skin with thorns
beautiful assassin brute
predators in her vast name
Insensate beast
cloaked in human seductive form
from the other domains
of dying dogmas you were reborn
Again the world ends up in drama
and the last dim glance exfoliates
the direful dirge of two thousand years
was hushed by a poisoned kiss
..but the scars still bear witness
of the human nemesis
Even now their perception
is dulled by devastation and cruelty
as the last one pulls the trigger to escape
"..the dreadful deathdreams
still I can hear their laughter.."
