Lyrics


1. GHOST OF A SWAMP

(Instrumental)


2. BLACK WITCH

The shadows suddenly grew long
And howling filled their homes
Dead silence came upon the ancient grove
The evil’s here like years ago, It’s back.
It hasn’t changed
The Satan’s daughter came to take revenge

The ill fame flew and like the plague
It came to every district
It told of hag with evil ruthless spirit
Her human flesh was burned to dust
And clericks struck the bells
But Devil threw her back from burning hell

The victim of the holy fire
She walks the land, her smile is dire
The ashes on her crooked lips
And hellish grip

Once dead, she came again to rise
No one can execute her twice
She can’t be drowned, she can’t be burned
She can’t be stopped in her return

The steel and stone obey the power of unholy runes
She spoils the water and conceals the moon
Collecting lives and freezing heat with the forbidden chants
She’s already begun her vengeful hunt

Her retinue of undead souls is throwing out their cry
The rotten madness in the empty eyes
The time is nigh, Your Eminence. God save you from her rage
The Satan’s daughter’s here to take revenge


3. OBLIVION

Blessed by the blood, raise your red
And white banners to sky
Hear the crying steel when the paladins travel far
One and only choice, over conscience – made with pure heart
And among the ways, there is one that leads
To the heaven’s gate

Each of us will fight
For eternal light
Will we be forgiven?
When we meet our fate,
Keep the open gate
Shine our thorny way
Straight to the Oblivion

Let the clericks sing while our hammers
Bring love to our foes
God is watching us, hilt of sword is just another cross
When we pass away, let the myth remain in the depth of time
In the darkest hour keep us in your heart
Fighters for the light

We will bring the rest
To the ones who blessed
With the swift salvation
With the Holy Words
We rely on swords
Seeking expiation

Each of us will fight
For eternal light
Will we be forgiven?
When we meet our fate,
Keep the open gate
Paradise or Hell
Os the same Oblivion


4. WEREWOLF HUNT

Listen! Silent night’s cut with hungry growl
Beasts are here and they’ve heard the leader’s call
Listen! It is fear, stranger’s steps around
Pack flies through the dark, shadows hide their run

Look out! Hundred eyes gleaming like the stars
Thousand times they’ve seen how the victim dies
Look out! Hold you chance, vanquish your own fear
Werewolves took your trace, werewolves are near

You almost feel the caress of their jaws
You’ve got your bare hands against teeth and claws
They owe the night. They will rend. They will gnaw.

Know that nightmare’s here, just behind your back
No chance to survive werewolves’ attack
Know that every step is a deal with fate
Try to save your life while it’s not too late

Is it just a dream? Just awaken!
Try to banish it, try to break it!
You are out of breath, you are hunted
No it can’t be death! It’s a nightmare!

They’re hunting you like the hounds hunt the brute
You’ll meet your doom at the end of pursuit
It’s just the night. Just the moon. Just the woods….


5. GRIMOIRE

I will be travelling all night
Where all the lifelines reunite
Where skies are pale and sun is red

I will remove the ancient dust
Revealing writings of the past
And I will read that we are dead

Among the stones and withered roses
I’m looking for the trail of those
Who thought that joy would never end

They are not fighting anymore
Cause there is nothing to fight for
And there is nothing to defend

I’ll gather tears of angels’ songs
From silver strings and poisoned thorns
The bitter wine and Golden Grail
You’ll drink and thirst will go away

The love I’ve drowned in wishing well
I’ll give away to lord of hell
And in return I will acquire
The grimoire of your desire
