Lyrics The Skull of the Sorcerer - Dawn Of Winter

The Skull of the Sorcerer

White skin under blackened robe
Children wonder and behold
Now with him the black plague unfolds
As in fever dreams foretold
Come priest — Follow your wretched lord
Suffer pagan wrath and die
Don’t let him spread his words of love
Tear his face off with a smile
Death curse of the northern cross
Baptized — Mocked and spat upon
Scriptures burnt and acts blasphemed
Hear the doomed old shaman scream
Sorcerer — Sorcerer
Bring me the skull of the sorcerer
I need the skull of the sorcerer
Body washed and decorated now
Chant performed over the corpse
One spirit leaves southwest to Biula
The subterranean underworld
Shave your head — Then blacken all your skin
Conceal your body and your face
Join the feast — Then dance the Maduna
Communicate with the deceased
The second spirit doth reside
Here in the skull that now is mine
His spirit trapped at my command
I am the ruler of this land
Sorcerer — Sorcerer
I hold the skull of the sorcerer
I own the skull of the sorcerer
