Night time floats in on silver wings
Chasing daylight through the trees
Drinking life from the marrow it taints
Taverns bubble with new voice
Drunk on nectars charged with death
Warming blood with the poison of saint
Candles burn...
Blood burns dry...
Nighttime burns from the flambeaux of death
Nighttime's teeth sink into the earth
Till the crops and sow the seeds
Of decay in the deepest ravines
Fingers prize open the coffin lids
Utter curses carved in flame
Stir the pots of black witches convened
A spent and wasted whore on her knees
Suffering once more for her virulent disease
In a lawless world of shadows and sprites
Rising through the seal of the deepest of nights
Tears frozen to ice...
Life frozen to stone...
Nighttime frozen from the waters of hell
And if you listen after midnight tolls
You can hear the rattle as death unfolds
A virgin raped, a temple torched
The tears of a sadist where the sunbeams scorched
It's always nighttime here
It's always nighttime here
It's always nighttime here
When your faith is lying in the ashes
When the Wolves raid the flock as they please
Across the sky a falling star flashes
Carves a path to death and disease
Wake the children asleep in their cradles
With nightmares and specters of doom
'Til the sanctum of daylight enables
The dead to return to their tombs
In the caverns in the coffins
it's always night-time here
In the caverns in the coffins
it's always night-time here
In the caverns in the coffins
it's always night-time here
In the caverns in the coffins it's always
night-time
here.
