Deathaura |
| «Remember when I told you how my Kin is different in some ways? |
| And how you should not fall in love |
| With someone like me, anyway… |
| Between the lines, people see signs |
| When they feel the sear, every day’s fear… |
| And one night their torches |
| Find the girl without a name… |
| And the one who has her |
| Love is no more safe…» |
| «And until I get my peace I’m but a shade…» |
| The sun lit the White Mountain’s snow covered peaks, |
| There I see you, amongst the good people, suffering… |
| «She is the One, the unwanted, decidedly so, |
| 'Cause she makes our children cry. |
| It’s a fact, she is exactly that! |
| A harbinger of death from the world of Witchcraft, |
| And she’s feeding them cakes and her ale to this innocent boy, |
| And her magic brings dismay…» |
| «I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town |
| Come with me, father, I’m to expose a heathen» |
| In my home town |
| No one’s safe now |
| Young love’s been forbidden |
| For five-fold kisses, my only love had to die… |
| «Your crops are all flourishing, so what’s the catch? |
| I know what you are, the new evil unhatched… |
| As sure as the dawn, they will hear what I know, |
| And recognize you, and you’ll be cleansed too…» |
| For the good, trusting people in town, |
| In their fear stricken hearts, |
| Seeing skyclad’s a sign like the Deathaura, |
| Every night, so painful’s the memory of love in the dark. |
| One wheel of the year ends their short lives in fear |
| «I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town. |
| Come with me, oh, father the heathen is exposed.» |
| In the age of burning times, you saved my life |
| … The blaze grew ever higher. |
| I was your Cunning Man… hiding in the light, |
| Now your land shall go sour… |
| Your own fears will destroy everything |
| Envy consumes all, and «thou shall not…» |
| Though it hurts, I must tell you |
| «I am truly the One |
| … Behind it all…» |
| In the hands of time we all will die |
| The dead of night will devour your child… |
| The creation o' beliefs you’ve been fed |
| The fear, the unknown, the poison loved by death. |
| In the cool of the night air |
| Flames purify minds, where |
| Almost anyone could be the next… |
| «Unless morning finds all of them somehow hexed…» |
| «I remember how you told me, |
| Your kin’s different, on that sunny day?» |
| «You made me smile, |
| 'Cause I was just about to say the same thing…» |
| So deeply entwined, love of a lifetime… |
| But they paid someone to say their torment has a name |
| And after all these years we get to be together for all eternity… |
