Witch-Storm Lyrics by Bathory

Witch-Storm Lyrics

    Silvern skull, sable shroud, ebon tower, onyx crown.
    Witchfire, black citadel, frost-shrouded steel, moon-veiled spell.

    The skyqueen of the dead rides forth, black storm-borne steeds,
    (their flanks anointed by) immortal blood,
    Hark to the striking of the winds, the moon burns black as slaughter reigns.
    Witch-Storm!

    Bright fires agleam through winter's night,
    Dark spells whispered on the winds,
    The trees enrob'd in veils of frost,
    Moonfire entwines the Eye of Khthon.

    From the moon-swathed depths of winter-mists,
    Enchantress, she-who-walks-the-night-alone,
    Sloe-eyed shape-shifting sucubus,
    Silken veils and slime-smeared flesh.
    Witch-storm!

    Storm-Witch, hearken this night,
    Hone this black blade with sorcery,
    Battle-spells annoint my flesh,
    Let blood and steel be my glory.

    Elder tongues encarved in sinistrous slime-flecked stone,
    The Obsidian Tower broods 'neath the moon,
    Winged fiends descend from storm-wrought skies,
    Black Ring, key to the Shadow Gate, aglow with eldritch spells.

    Forged in witchfire, envenomed steel,
    Ensorcelled blade, blood-ravening,
    Ebon demon's tooth, the bane of Kings,
    Red rain of slaughter, prow of blood.
    WITCH-STORM!

    THE RAVENING
    (Lyrics: Byron, Music: Jonny & Chris)

    Black Legions ravening for blood,
    Dark Lords hearken to my call,
    Warriors rise forth from the earth,
    Battle-spells empower me,
    The Throne of Kings, the summoning,
    Marble halls sunk 'neath the waves,
    Storm-wolves a prowl (beneath) the ebon moon,
    Immortal hordes, pledge me thine steel!

    The clarion call of battle sounds,
    Iron gleams in baleful flame,
    Slaughter shines from misted eyes,
    Storm-forged blade drink deep.
    Stench of carnage fires my blood,
    My bride of steel sings in my hand,
    Corpse-mounds piled to touch the sky,
    Black fury enshroud me!

    Bleed for the gods of war!
    Flesh to sate the worms!
    By this sword I rule!

    Dreadful fall of slaughter,
    Raw scent of fresh-spilled blood,
    Crimson rain falls from the sky,
    Ravens ride the storm.

    Black cloud of arrows, red storm of swords,
    Dark wave of carnage... slaughterfall!

    By blood and steel I rule!
