作词 : Cradle Of Faith, Dani | |
Spawned wanton like blight on an auspicious night | |
Her eyes betrayed spells of the moon's eerie light | |
A disquieting gaze forever ghosting far seas | |
Bled white and dead, Her true mother was fed | |
To the ravenous wolves that the elements led | |
From crag-jagged mountains that seemingly grew in unease | |
Through the maw of the woods, a black carriage was drawn | |
Flanked by barbed lightning that hissed of the storm | |
(Gilded in crests of Carpathian breed) | |
Bringing slaves to the sodomite for the new-born | |
On that eve when the Countess' own came deformed | |
A tragedy crept to the name Bathory | |
Elizabeth christened, no paler a rose | |
Grew so dark as this sylph | |
None more cold in repose | |
Yet Her beauty spun webs | |
Round hearts a glance would betroth | |
She feared the light | |
So when She fell like a sinner to vice | |
Under austere, puritanical rule | |
She sacrificed... | |
Mandragora like virgins to rats in the wall | |
But after whipangels licked prisoners, thralled | |
Never were Her dreams so maniacally cruel | |
(And possessed of such delights) | |
For ravens winged Her nightly flights | |
Of erotica | |
Half spurned from the pulpit | |
Torments to occur | |
Half learnt from the cabal of demons | |
In Her | |
Her walk went to voodoo | |
To see Her own shadow adored | |
At mass without flaw | |
Though inwards She abhored | |
Not Her coven of suitors | |
But the stare of their Lord | |
"I must avert mine eyes to hymns | |
For His gaze brings dogmas to my skin | |
He knows that I dreamt of carnal rites | |
With Him undead for three long nights" | |
Elizabeth listened | |
No sermons intoned | |
Dragged such guilt to Her door | |
Tombed Her soul with such stone | |
For She swore the Priest sighed | |
When She knelt down to atone... | |
She feared the light | |
So when She fell | |
Like a sinner to vice | |
Under austere, puritanical rule | |
She sacrificed | |
Her decorum as chaste | |
To this wolf of the cloth | |
Pouncing to haunt | |
Her confessional box | |
Forgiveness would come | |
When Her sins were washed off | |
By rebaptism in white.... | |
The looking glass cast Belladonna wreaths | |
'Pon the grave of Her innocence | |
Her hidden face spat murder | |
From a whisper to a scream | |
All sleep seemed cursed | |
In Faustian verse | |
But there in orgiastic Hell | |
No horrors were worse | |
Than the mirrored revelation | |
The She kissed the Devil's phallus | |
By Her own decree... | |
So with windows flung wide to the menstrual sky | |
Solstice Eve She fled the castle in secret | |
A daughter of the storm, astride Her favourite nightmare | |
On winds without prayer | |
Stigmata still wept between Her legs | |
A cold bloodedness which impressed new hatreds | |
She sought the Sorceress | |
Through the snow and dank woods to the sodomite's lair | |
Nine twisted fates threw hewn bone die | |
For the throat of Elizabeth | |
Damnation won and urged the moon | |
In soliloquy to gleam | |
Twixt the trees in shafts | |
To ghost a path | |
Past the howl of buggered nymphs | |
In the sodomite's grasp | |
To the forest's vulva | |
Where the witch scholared Her | |
In even darker themes | |
"Amongst philtres and melissas | |
Midst the grease of strangled men | |
And eldritch truths, elder ill-omen | |
Elizabeth came to life again" | |
And under lacerations of dawn She returned | |
Like a flame unto a deathshead | |
With a promise to burn | |
Secrets brooded as She rode | |
Through mist and marsh to where they showed | |
Her castle walls wherein the restless | |
Counted carrion crows | |
She awoke from a fable to mourning | |
Church bells wringing Her madly from sleep | |
Tolled by a priest, self castrated and hung | |
Like a crimson bat 'neath the belfry | |
The biblical prattled their mantras | |
Hexes six-tripled their fees | |
But Elizabeth laughed, thirteen Autumns had passed | |
And She was a widow from god and His wrath, finally... |
