Lyrics

Like a moth to a flame I see a shape trembling Cloaked, eerie beast, it speaks "Come hither, love, to me" The bravest of the three, questioning "Why are thou all forwrapped save thy face?" "It is a wretched curse. I walked the earth To find a soul that can release me from this infinite hell But now I shall remain cold, pale and still As long a time as it is God's will Pain fills my days like a constant noise I have begged Death to take me away Cursed are the fates, I dance into the fires At the ground that is my mother's grave I lay with her, early till late Mother, let me in Look at me now dull flesh, blood and skin Let me die. Box up my living corpse When will I wake from this nightmare? Death, let me die Will you not do me that grace? Look at my forlorn face Let me die Can't you see my life's not worth living? But to you it is of no concern In Holy writ that I know you have read Against the old, aged be thy head (Youth shall arise) Drown me in this black light Do unto me no harm God be with you, be with you tonight" "You cannot part so lightly Thou spoke of Death In this land, all our friends be slayed Swear by the Holy Sacrament That you are not his damned assailant Simply sent to betray us" "If you be so desperate to die Head up that winding path For in that grove, the dwelling place of Death You will see his design Once you reach that oak You will meet Death God save you all Votive offerings God save you all Votive offerings"
