1. THE 7TH DAY OF AUGUST 1560

Nyibator, Hungary a storm came close
The countess of blood
Will be born today
The moon is high above red as blood
The sky celebrates with thunders and lightnings
The arrive of the empress of darkness

Elizabeth Báthory's her name
The best girl I've ever heard (‘bout)
Daughter to Báthory György and Báthory Anna and darkness itself
Báthory has come to stay

[Drum solo]

Elizabeth was soon send to a castle
Where she spend her infancy
Studying Greek and Latin and German too…

She is not Abigail, she is not Emerencia
She is something worst…
Elizabeth Báthory's her name
Daughter to darkness itself
Báthory is here to stay


2. THE WEDDING

The years has passed and Elizabeth is twelve
Her parents had planned and arrangement
And she was engaged to Nadasdy Ferenc

4500 guests
Had come to the event

But Nadasdy will soon move
Soon to Vienna to study
And Elizabeth was all alone
With her 17 villages all around
Adjacent to the Csejte castle in the darkness
Near the Little Carpathians
Bought from Rudolf II


3. HER HUSBAND'S DEATH

In 1604
Bad news had arrive
Her husband the poor Nadasdy had died

He was fighting leading his troops
During the height of the Long War

Elizabeth is crying
Their 29 years old marriage has finished
Marked by blood
Blood that soon she will know…

They had five children
Anne, then the poor Ursula and András who died too young
Then Katalin and Pál

All of them rose by a governess
Like Elizabeth herself

Elizabeth is crying
Their 29 years old marriage has finished
Marked by blood
Blood that soon she will know...


4. TWO STRANGERS IN HUNGARY

A young couple has arrived to town
They are from Britain
Ian and Elsa came to enjoy

To enjoy the place
The castle Csejte was beautiful to sight
They were in their way to Transylvania
But they'd came to some place worst

The countess of blood
Has started her fun
There's no place for women in town

And they don't know about the countess
They don't know about the slayer
A slayer that happens since her husband died
And death toll rises fast

The countess of blood
Has started her fun
There's no place for women in town


5. THE ABDUCTION

Two days has passed since they arrived to her domains
They are walking through the forest near the village
The rain has started to fall and they are looking for a shelter
Darkness falls and then a laugh breaks the sky

[guitar solo]

Then a coach stops
It is the countess' coach
Then Dorka and Ficko appear
They took Elsa and pushed Ian away

“Leave her alone”
Ian screamed
“Get out of here you are worthless for my queen”
Dorka said
“And if you know what's best for you you'll stay away from us”

The coach now gets away
And is eating by the dark
Elsa is on her way
To her own personal hell
The castle Csejte
The mansion where the mistress dwells


6. CASTLE CSEJTE

The coach has stopped
And Elsa is guided to Csejte
Grey walls on the outside
Darkness all around,
A heavy gloomy glow

If you walk through the gloomy walkways
You could only feel the pain
Dungeons stained on blood
Bodies all around
And Elsa walks to death

Down below there's a crypt
In where the bodies they are keep
Some servants carry bodies through the walkways
To the outside ‘cause the crypt is almost full

Into a room Elsa is taken
There's a bath, and blood, and dark, and pain
A long chain is on the floor
Ready to make its job
Katarina and Ilona Jo lead Elsa
And attaches the long the chain to her feet
The ritual is ready
For the princess Báthory


7. THE COUNTESS

The countess herself appeared to make her job
She was beautiful; a woman only dreams can create
Her long black hair, her shining brown eyes
Her skin white as a paper

Ian was in shock, shivering to the bone behind a wall
Following her servants to the dungeon
[Countess]: “Take him away from here”
Ian attacked, “Stop that little boy” Elizabeth said
Grabbing his hand “Get out of here”
Then she pushes a button which left Elsa hanging on the air by her feet
[Ian]: “No Elsa”, Dorka was struggling with Ian
Then Báthory cut her throat
Blood was running into the bath
Ian was screaming and crying
Dorka took him out of the castle
He knew Elsa was dead

Inside the castle
Elizabeth's ready for her bath
So out comes the clothes
The blood touches her body
The blood makes her strong
It makes her even more beautiful
She'll spend a long time there
Bathing herself by the candlelight
The joy of take a life

The bathing has finish
And the last part of this “ritual”
Must be done
So she cut off Elsa's head
And pushes it into a stake
Elizabeth's ready for her bath
So out comes the clothes
The blood touch her body
The blood makes her strong


8. THE FATE OF IAN

Before I proceed
I have to tell you what happen to Ian
I've heard that some day near the village
He killed himself by hanging
The memory of seeing Elsa dying
Was too strong for this poor boy
A white cross near Csejte
Marks the place in where he rests
They say every Friday night
You could hear him cry
And wandering why Elsa had to go and die


9. JURAJ THURZO

In 1610 King Matthias
Assigned the Palatine of Hungary Juraj Thurzo
To investigate my queen
Soon Juraj was at the crypt
The horror that he saw
Left him in shock
The dungeons full of blood
Bodies everywhere

Soon he arrived to a walkway
From which he can see the fireplace
A shadow is in front
But he stills unseen
A little room is on the left
It's Báthory's bedroom
A book is on the bed
And he haves to know
So he red that book
Names of hundreds of women
All writing in blood
Name, age, even weight
A full description of the death
A full testimony of pain

Soon he arrived to a walkway
From which he can see the fireplace
But now the shadow is in front
And the countess screamed “Take this man away from here”

Names of hundreds of women
All writing in blood
Name, age, even weight
A full description of the death
A full testimony of pain


10. ARREST

On December 30 that same year
Juraj Thurzo came back to Csejte
To take Elizabeth

He was very afraid for come back to that sinister place
Castle Csejte is only for the brave
His men found one girl dead and another dying
They found a dungeon full of women
Waiting for their fate

Powerhouse of murdering
These sinister gates hide
The castle seems to cry
Sounds come from the inside
The moon is high and blue

Ficko and Dorka and the other servants
They are arrested too
But soon the countess will return
She cannot die
Moon is high above and the sky is sad

Powerhouse of murdering
These sinister gates hide
The castle seems to cry
Sounds come from the inside
The moon is high and blue
In this sinister night


11. UNFAIR TRIAL

More than 300 witnesses had spoken
Her 4 servants too
But Elizabeth isn't at court
She was not allowed
An unfair trial is going on

Then Juraj showed the book
Names of more than 650 women
All written in blood
Name, age, even weight
The bible of the pain
All show the way they died
That book is now at a museum
And they don't allow anybody to read it
‘Cause of it's content
They say it drives you crazy

The trial continues
And Ficko, Dorka and Ilona Jo
They all are found guilty
And put to death on the spot
While Katarina was confined to life imprisonment

The descriptions of torture and heresy filled the judge's ears:
“Severe beatings often leading to death,
Burning and mutilations of hands, faces, and vagina,
Beating flesh off the bodies,
Freezing to death,
Unnecessary surgeries
Most of them leading to death,
Starving victims,
Sexual abuse”
All of that was in the book
And in the witnesses heads too
A real symphony of destruction
Conducted by the mistress
The countdown to extinction of all the women
The perfect recipe for hate

Our countess was sentenced to life imprisonment
In the castle Csejte

Later that trial
A public scaffold was erected
Near the castle of pain
To show the public that justice has been done

But Justice has failed again
She's innocent in some way
Justice has failed again
She's innocent in some way


12. THE 21ST DAY OF AUGUST 1614

4 Years had passed
Since the trial it took place
They found Elizabeth dead in her “cell”

Plates of food left untouched
The real date of her death stills unknown
For all a week
The moon was red of blood
The sky was crying blood
The darkness was in pain
Crying the death of its favorite child

Her body was buried in a church
Of castle Csjete
But the villagers they protested
They didn't want to the “The Tigress of Csejte”
Rest in their graveyard
So her body was moved to her birth place
To castle Ecsed to the Báthory family crypt

Some say she took her inspiration
From Anna Darvulia herself
But she died long before the trial
And far away from Csejte

And the moon was red of blood
The sky was crying blood
The darkness was in pain
Crying the death of its favorite child


13. STAY EVIL
[Prayer took from the movie “Stay Alive”, written by William Brent Bell, Matthew Peterman]

“Come to me Clouds
May you rise as an evil storm
Born to rip them open
Let the cover of night bear witness
Who resist so they will harm me not
Let the blood of many cleanse me,
Preserving beauty eternal
I pray you”

The countess is still alive
She stills inside Csejte
The shadow of death
Stills persists

So if you are a woman
If you are a girl
Never get close to Csejte
Or you will regret

The countess of blood stills await
The day of her return
Darya Saltykova, Gilles de Rais
Thug Behram they are nothing to Elizabeth

And the moon will turn red
And the sky will celebrate
The rain will make us remember
‘Bout the daughter of darkness itself

Yeah, the countess stills await
The day of her return
And Jack the Ripper, and Vlad III
Will bow to the princess of pain

So come back Elizabeth
You are that evil storm
Born to rip them open
Let the cover of night cover this world
So they will harm you not
Let the blood of many cleanse you,
Preserving your beauty eternal
I pray you


14. ELIZABETH (SLAYER COVER)
Modified version of "Angel of Death".
"Angel of Death" original lyrics by Jeff Hanneman.
"Angel of Death" lyrics modified by Marconi.

Csejte, the meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
Forced in
Like cattle
You run
Stripped of
Your life's worth
Female mice, for the princess of hell
Six hundred women more to die

Elizabeth
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead

Sadistic, surgeon of demise
Sadist of the noblest blood
Destroying, without mercy
To benefit her perfect face
Surgery, with no anesthesia
Feel the knife pierce you intensely
Inferior, no use to mankind
Strapped down screaming out to die

Elizabeth
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
The glorious butcher,
Elizabeth

Pumped with fluid, inside your brain
Pressure in your skull begins pushing through your eyes
Burning flesh, drips away
Test of heat burns your skin, your mind starts to boil
Frigid cold, cracks your limbs
How long can you last
In this frozen water burial?
Sewn together, joining heads
Just a matter of time
Till you rip yourselves apart
Hundreds laid out in their
Crowded tombs
Sickening ways to achieve
A holocaust

Seas of blood, bury life
Smell your death as it burns
Deep inside your cunt
Abacinate, eyes that bleed
Praying for the end of
Your wide awake nightmare
Wings of pain, reach out for you
Her face of death staring down,
Your blood running cold
Injecting cells, dying eyes
Feeding on the screams of
The mutants she's creating
Pathetic harmless victims
Left to die
The glorious Elizabeth
Flying free

Elizabeth
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
The glorious butcher,
Elizabeth

Elizabeth
