Morgana

She Dwells in the forest and she hovers o'er the dales
Sea born of the purest blood dark queen of ancient tales
Lady of the isles, Empress of the wilderness
Enchantress who beguiles
Woe betide the man her favours bless
Morgana, Morgana.
She who holds the power in between the dark and light
Send you up to heaven or banished to endless night.
Mistress of seven arts in the vale perilous
Stealer of souls and hearts
We worship her beauty nonetheless
Morgana, Morgana.

Black Shuck
03:53
|

Light all beacons lock all doors and pray with all your might
That canine beast that man abhors
Black shuck is out tonight
With eyes of red that terrify and fur as dark as night
Hear the warning heed the cry
Black shuck is out tonight
Tell the priest to toll the bell
A demon has escaped from hell
Don't you peak and don't you look
Black Shuck
Children do not make a sound for he will hear your cries
Then he'll come scratching at your door look not into his eyes
Blow out candles now be still and pray to God on high
That old Black Shuck won't hear you now as he is passing by
Hark he's howling in the night
Lord save us from this awful plight
Don't you peak and don't you look
Black Shuck
Dark silhouette against full moon
He's high up on the hill
Old Shuck will near our village soon
He's looking for the kill

Some boys were playing out one day
Saw a tree and one did say
Let us look inside to see
What in this hiding place might be
The bravest put his hand inside
The strangest thing did this boy find
Inside was a woman's head
A skull it was cos she was dead
Oh my God who can it be?
Who put Bella in the wych elm tree?
The skull it had no eyes to see
Oh my God who could it be?
They said she came from German lands
She got no legs and got no hands
Without her legs she won't get far
Without no hands she'll drive no car
She'd be lost without her head
How can she eat she won't get fed
She ain't the same as you and me
Who put Bella in the wych elm tree?
We thought she was a ghost at first
Some said she was a spy who's worse?
This ain't no place to lay your head
It's far too cold to make your bed
It's sad you ended up this way
I hope you will forgive one day
Us entering your sacred space
Your skull and bones I will replace
She don't belong to you or me
I'll put Bella in the wych elm tree?

Moonlit Ritual
01:52
|
|||
In the moonlit forest glade
You are here
In your long white dress
And garlands in your hair
Sweet pagan princess
Comely and fair
We embrace
Our hearts beating fast as we dream of the fruits to be proffered
To be offered
As I kiss your sweet crimson lips
Blood drips blood drips
The crucified rose never tasted a pain sweet as this
I am swollen like the full moon
You swoon
I came only too soon into your chalice
Into your womb
The stag now is watching
While the wolf he howls at the moon

Tainters Hill
04:49
|
|||
From the hill I will call you
Will you promise that you'll be there?
Wear that dress that I bought you
Will you put flowers in your hair?
All I want is to see you
We can talk about olden times
When we both were together
And I hoped that you would be mine

In our far-flung galaxy we observe the things that we all know
Legends myths and fantasies
Written in the sky a starlit show
All tears have dried all birds have flown
See how much we've learned
How much we've grown
All tears have dried all birds have flown
The unknowable and the unknown
We are all just specks of dust whirling in a vortex with a flow
Tiny shiny particles
See our luminescence
How we glow
All tears have dried all birds have flown
See how much we've learned
How much we've grown
All tears have dried all birds have flown
The unknowable and the unknown
In our far-flung galaxy we observe the things that we all know
Legends myths and fantasies
Written in the sky a starlit show
All tears have dried all birds have flown
See how much we've learned
How much we've grown
All tears have dried all birds have flown
The unknowable and the unknown

Sun God

Come forward the light to cleanse us
Nightwalkers and dreamers sated by the revels of the night
Illuminate us sun god and reveal the true nature of our shame
Light the path that shows us the way
You curse us with your beauty
And we long to hide in the shadows where your rays they cannot reach us
We are afraid we are undead
Honour the light but favour the night
When the sun does hide his head
Come to us sun god come !!
Come to us sun god come !!
