|
The rain pours down with pain, dampening the straws of hay |
|
Flowing down my face, mingling with tears |
|
Tears of despair and rage, years of emptiness and hate |
|
Soon swept away by the flames, mouldering ashes |
|
All that remain, is a pile of charred bones |
|
Raising dust for the wind to carry far away |
|
The rain pours down with pain, yet they sing and dance |
|
Floating in a trance like state, bewitched by the chanting |
|
Masked faces far below me, laughing mockingly |
|
The first torch is lit, soon followed by others |
|
This is it now, it will all end, on this solstice's night |
|
Flame, come take me, swallow me |
|
Oh great nothing, devour me |
|
Light it up, burn it down |
|
May the gods, accept our sacrifice |
|
Flesh to touch, flesh to burn |
|
Do not keep the wicker man waiting |
|
As flood I'll return, |
|
I am your sacrifice |
|
Your corpse will rot into the fields, you'll famish and starve |
|
As plague |
|
I'll return, going to destroy your world |
|
With fever you'll burn, and |
|
I'll save none |
