PALE GODDESS RISING

Verse 1

They tied the knot

Stacked the dry wood high

Father watched from the chapel floor

Peasants screamed for the daughter of a lord

Matthias traded souls while the grain rotted black

Pre-Chorus

He made the dark deal

I took the red path

No more golden fields

Only endless burning wrath

Chorus

Hope burns away tonight

Hope burns for the spite

Pale hair and silver skin

Forging a queen from the sin

Hope burns

Lady Death returns

Drop

Hope burns

Death returns

Verse 2

Through the brimstone gates

Past the river of dead eyes

The sorcerer leads the rebel war

I find the blacksmith hiding in the deep

He says that a simple farm girl is gone

Pre-Chorus

Renounce every weak breath

Claim the crown of bone

Give me Lady Death

Seize the burning throne

Chorus

Hope burns away tonight

Hope burns for the spite

Pale hair and silver skin

Forging a queen from the sin

Hope burns

Lady Death returns

Bridge

Hellwitch

Atrocitas

Purgatori blood

We bring the iron flood

Fifteen million souls

Coffin keeps the goals

Kill the living world

Watch the wings unfurled

Drop

Long live the Queen

In the Coffin machine

Chorus

Hope burns away tonight

Hope burns for the spite

Pale hair and silver skin

Forging a queen from the sin

Hope burns

Lady Death returns

Post-Chorus

Burn it down

Take the crown

Lady Death

One last breath
