Píseň: The black goddess rises

Interpret:
Cradle of Filth
Album:
Total Fucking Darkness (demo)
Thee I Invoke, bornless one 
all woman, pure predator 
Wherein conspiracy and impulse dwell 
like a seething fall from grace 


Thee I worship


Thou art darkest Gabrielle
Lilith who rode the steed
thou art pale Hecate 
rising from thessealy


Crush their unworthy idols
no church shall bar our path
seductive Evil, drink you fill
on the bleeding christ in your arms


You are in my dreams 
the Darkness in my eyes 
the rapture in their screams 
Black Goddess arise


Nothing will keep us apart
we could kill them all
if our desire tore free
Our union as one, sweet, sinful Eve


And the nigth draws in beside her
as we embrace the dark side by side
I pour my soul to those eyes full of fire
to harvest the seed ploughed inside her


Archangel, snare the flesh
suck dry the ebbing wound
leave them lifeless and broken
my beloved...


Oh, how I craved for you
You so pure and other-worldly with your scent of Winter
am I to bleed myself dry to see your delight?


And the fear retreats forever
(Come to me... Black Goddess arise)
when my secrets are buried in thine
(Come to me... Black Goddess arise)
under seven stars we came together
(Come to me... Black Goddess arise)
to plot the new age´s decline
(come to me... ARISE!)


Ishtar my Queen
come forth to me 
and help me seize my future from the House of Death


That in therelease of immotality
I should slay their fucking nazarene
Ah... the lies... the jew... I kill for you...


You are in my dreams 
the Darkness in my eyes 
the rapture in their screams 
Black Goddess arise


Hidden lusts will break the gates and swarm
as love secretes the thrill for war
the virgin raped shall seek to whore 
She-wolf bare you snarling jaw


Thee I Invoke, bornless one 
all woman, pure predator 
Wherein conspiracy and impulse dwell
Surrender to the black metal!


Thou art darkest Gabrielle
Lilith who rode the steed
thou art pale Hecate 
rising from thessealy
