Intro
Mm-hmm
In ninety-one a boy dreamed a goddess
Out of the pages and into the fire
The dream never ends
Verse 1
Peasants bleed under his heavy sword
Lord Matthias needs his taxes and a whip
Fields grow cold while he makes a trip
Cruel tyrant serves a secret board
My mother dead in a forgotten year
They dragged me to the stake to die
White hair blowing against a black sky
Burn the witch they shout in fear
Pre-Chorus
Fire licks at my bruised heels
I hear the demon's ancient breath
So I spoke words to seal
A bargain with the king of death
Chorus
Hope is burning
Hope is dead
Renounce the light inside your head
The queen is waking
The throne is red
Call me Lady Death instead
Lady Death instead
Post-Chorus
La la la
Cold metal soul
Ha ha ha
Lose all control
Verse 2
Down through brimstone where the rebels fight
My father leads the charge against the king
Lucifer watches from a shadowed wing
I am broken by this tainted light
I found the smith in a deep cave
Pick a name for the girl you killed
The blood is hot and the cup is filled
I leave the farm girl in a shallow grave
Pre-Chorus
I led the uprising through the pit
Cursed to never walk the waking ground
If death is where I have to sit
Then every living soul stays bound
Chorus
Hope is burning
Hope is dead
Renounce the light inside your head
The queen is waking
The throne is red
Call me Lady Death instead
Lady Death instead
Post-Chorus
La la la
Cold metal soul
Ha ha ha
Lose all control
Bridge
Hellwitch rivals with a flame-haired snarl
Purgatori drinking from a white skin vein
Fifteen million copies of the struggle and the snarl
We rise again through the bankruptcy and pain
The voodoo priestess begs me save the world I hate
But I love the feeling of a wide-open gate
Sword for a rage and a sword for the throne
Hell is the kingdom I built all alone
Chorus
Hope is burning
Hope is dead
Renounce the light inside your head
The queen is waking
The throne is red
Call me Lady Death instead
Lady Death instead
Drop
Pale goddess
Black and white
Pale goddess
Killing the light
