Night lowers her veil
Stars masking a cruel smile
Atrocities witness by her scarlet eyes
By the light of the moon she stalks
A sweet song paralyzes
Fear unkept
Cleanse my sins with your rain
Crimson tears
Fire from the sky
Abandoned in this forsaken land
Brutally reminiscent
She gives pain that is most exquisite
Kneel in the pale glow
Utter the forbidden name
White fire laden to open the gate
Seduced by the promise
In this strange death I linger
From the depths of time comes the serpent mother
She came and poured the emptiness into me
Strange dreams
Tortured nightmares
In the lust of the dark
