The Mistletoe Bride 04:37

The Mistletoe Bride Winters falling eve All the life that’s ever breathed Comes to the fading hall Wrapped in a bridal wreath She sings with glee & mirth Danced by the open hearth Played out her final game In a faded bridal wreath Seek, seek, where can she hide? Seek, seek, for the mistletoe bride Weep, weep, where does she reside? Weep, weep, for the mistletoe bride For ages laid down Fine lace to ashes All alone, a casket home In her faded bridal wreath Moons passed so many times A silent soul for century’s Still clutching to her gown In her faded bridal wreath The sands of time have passed Long shadows have been cast Forgotten dreams Of a faded bridal wreath Then they opened an old box Unpicked its rusty locks Still inside clutching her gown In a faded bridal wreath Seek, seek, where can she hide? Seek, seek, for the mistletoe bride Weep, weep, where does she reside? Weep, weep, for the mistletoe bride Copyright Malkin Tower 2017

Call the Morrigu 06:24

Call the Morrigu Prophetess of war Dark sister of night Black feathers fly Symbol of shattered skies Temptress of man All you embrace is wild Red hot in lust She’s a warrior’s child She is the death that comes Seeking eternal love When her vision’s clear Your know your time is near Dark sister of fortune and fate Phantom queen of final embrace Take me now to natures centre Into the mound forever to enter Call the Morrigu Call the Morrigu Call the Morrigu Call the Morrigu Priestess of fate Weaver of prophecies Washing the blood Staining our destinies Raven sorceress Triple faced queen of night Winder of threads Enemy to the light Morrigan, Babd, Macha, Nemain, Fea, Danu, Morgan Le Fay X4 Soaring battle crow Hiding her mysteries Black witch, dark moons Shadow our histories Lover of Lugh She’s the Phantom Queen Fortelling war Now as she’s always been…

I am the Witch Gaze up to the moon Form a pentacle Raise the knife and chalice Call so mote it be Light the flame of southern sun Breathe the air of the windy East Cold earth in the northern wastes Rivers flow in the western hills Cast the circle, raise the cone Settle down by a standing stone Call the consort to your side Maiden, Mother and Crone I am the Witch X 8 Backing (cunning & wise, flies through the skies, As old as the sea, so mote it be) Bathe in naked starlight Ride the besom broom Close your eyes and feel it Chant the blessed be

Elysium 03:51
lyrics

Elysium So shallow the waters Washed over my soul Bearing me down To the abyss So fleeting the moments I’m no longer whole Slowly I drown Into the mist My journey is over Elysium’s rest Shading my eyes The eternal bliss So pure in the snowdrift The crimson draws out As fortune has died Death shall I kiss

Artorius Rex 05:24
lyrics

Artorius Rex Asleep beneath an island mound A dragon lies in shrouds of dust For centuries sleep was mantle worn As hope above had lost all trust But horns will blow and banners fly Again the sword from stone held high The lady in the lake shall rise again And the merlin he will cry Artorius Rex Once and future king Artorius Rex All freedom is within Artorius Rex We’ll find the faith to win Artorius Rex Bring us to Camelot Shake the earth and break the crust Awake the knights to life are thrust Step into light brave lords of right To fight the dark and shaded night It was foretold he would return Beset with enemies we turn To wake the dragon, within us stir To hold again Excalibur But horns will blow and banners fly Again the sword from stone held high The lady in the lake shall rise again And the merlin he will cry

Where Shadows Fall 08:35
lyrics
buy track
Where Shadows Fall Faint spark of light on the horizon Ash that falls begins to break Awoke from slumber in denial Scanned the ocean, wide awake Rusty seas of dying homelands Crashed on shores of cursed chance Open wounds that torment always Spawn the tears of fate’s old dance What have we done to man, why can’t it come again, will it all have to end, Now Are we so damnable?, All is corruptible, all that we throw away… What have we done to earth, sowing the very curse, Blighting its own rebirth, now Can we be saved at all, before the shadows fall, Where the shadows fall Arise the pillars of our shaming Sound the chimes that crack the bell Eternal slaves in our obedience Chained up in an empty hell Old script around the cup of madmen Pain’s chalice, drink it to the end Bled out, the wolves still serve the masters Fall before the temples they defend
