MASTER RECORDING LYRICS
FONT:
I: The Premonition
"Remember when I told you,
how my kin is different in some ways?
And how you should not fall in love,
with someone like me, anyway.
Between the lines, people see signs.
When they feel the sear, every day's fear.
And one night their torches find the girl without a name.
And the one who has her love is no more safe.
And until I get my peace,
I'm but a shade..."
II: The Witch-hunt
The sun lit the White Mountain's snow covered peaks.
There I see you, amongst the good people suffering.
"She is the one,
the unwanted, decidedly so,
because she makes our children cry.
It's a fact, she is exactly that!
A harbinger of Death,
from the world of witchcraft!
And she's feeding them cakes,
and her ale to this innocent boy.
And her magic brings dismay."
III: Exposing The Heathen
"I hear her in the wind,
the bane of our town.
Come with me, father!
I'm to expose a heathen."
In my home town, no one's safe now.
Young love's been forbidden,
for five-fold kisses.
My only love had to die.
IV: Envy
"Your crops are all flourishing,
so what's the catch?
I know what you are,
the new evil unhatched.
As sure as the dawn,
they will hear what I know!
And recognize you,
and you'll be cleansed too."
V: The Fear
For the good, trusting people in town,
in their fear stricken hearts,
seeing skyclad's a sign like the Deathaura.
Every night, so painful's the memory,
of love in the dark.
One wheel of the year,
ends their short lives in fear.
"I hear her in the wind,
the bane of our town.
Come with me, father!
The heathen is exposed."
VI: The Grudge
In the age of burning times,
you saved my life.
The blaze grew ever higher.
I was your cunning man,
hiding in the light.
Now your land shall go sour.
Your own fears will destroy everything.
Envy consumes all and "thou shall not!"
Though it hurts, I must tell you:
"I am truly the one behind it all."
VII: The Curse
In the hands of time we all will die.
The dead of the night will devour your child.
The creation of beliefs you've been fed,
the fear, the unknown, the poison loved by Death.
VIII: The Flames
In the cool of the night air,
flames purify minds,
where almost anyone could be the next.
"Unless morning finds all of them somehow, hexed."
IX: Endless Inquisition
-Instrumental-
X: ...Together, Today, For All Eternity
"I remember how you told me,
your kin's different on that sunny day?
You made me smile,
because I was just about,
to say the same thing."
So deeply entwined,
love of a lifetime.
But they paid someone to say,
their torment has a name.
And after all these years,
we get to be together for all eternity.
