necromantia - scarlet witching screams lyrics

turn from the light and live for eternity

a mesmerizing whisper
i once heard in a dream
and blood painted my dream scarlet
sending my soul to sleep

i dreamed a purple night sky
which i crossed on black wings
i met the queen of darkness
destined to be my bride
and blood painted my dream scarlet
sending my soul to weep

i once dreamed of a tower
of black ebony stone
surrounded by three rivers
flegethon, acheron and styx
and blood painted my dreams scarlet
drowning my soul in grief

i dreamed of frozen caverns
bathed in pale moonlight
unearthly bat-like figures
were resting in the vault
and blood painted my dream scarlet
marking my soul to deep

i once dreamed of a grey wolf
which came and licked my hands
i gazed into the beast's eyes
and saw that i must hunt
and blood painted my dream scarlet
upsetting my soul from sleep

and now i dream of myself
transformed and born again
free from the earthen death tides
entering dreams of others
and blood paints my dreams scarlet
sending my soul to feed
