Headless Cross

Look through the people
and on through the mist
To the hill of the headless cross
Where all witches meet
on a night such as this
And the power of darkness is host
They come face to face
eye to eye, soul to soul
With an angel that fell from the sky
Borne on the air
all the screams and the wails
Of the masses appointed to die.

Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture
At the headless cross
at the headless cross.

From the first evil night
when a black flash of light
Cut the crucifix half to the ground.
There's been no escape
from the power of Satan.
On a nation so brave and so proud

Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture
At the headless cross
at the headless cross

How do you feel
when the locks refuse the key
And the master is calling your name?
Does the luck of the charm
really keep you from harm
Does the talisman protect you from pain?

Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture
At the headless cross
at the headless cross

From the first evil night
when a black flash of light
Cut the crucifix half to the ground
There's no escaping
from the power of Satan
For a people so brave and so proud

Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture
Headless Cross
at the Headless Cross
At the Headless Cross
oh at the Headless Cross.
Oh where will you run to?
At the Headless Cross
Look to the Headless Cross

Devil and Daughter

Silence is mocking
the dawn of a new day
Devil and daughter
are both on their way.
The Evil of her nature
collects in her eyes.
With him there's no fear
of the dawn bringing light.

Baptised with fire
too wild to be tamed
She's hot, evil, and ready
to take any man
Let no one put asunder
the power the pain
He is the master of hell
riding again
Devil and Daughter - pleasure and pain.
Devil and Daughter - is this the end?

A thousand times over
you'll hear on the wind
In the name of hell
these sinners never sinned
But Satan never listens
to the words that they send
Drenching the soul with blood
when will it end?
Devil and Daughter - Oh he's got the power, she's got the pain.
Devil and Daughter - She'll break any woman and take any man, ohh-oh.
Devil and Daughter - Hand in hand with the reaper.

When Death Calls

He saw the world
dim with glow of the vertical sun
His skin crept cold
knowing that this is the hours of dying
Misguided mortals you'll burn with me
Spirit of man cannot be free

When Death calls - This is the hours of dying
When Death calls - The spirit of man can't be freed
When Death calls - Oh there's no tomorrow
When Death calls - Oh just an evil shadow

Tell me not
fear of the flames means that Heaven is closer
For I believe Satan lives in the souls of the dying
Misguided mortals you'll burn with me
Spirit of man cannot be free

When Death calls - Heaven is closer
When Death calls - Feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying
When Death calls - Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
When Death calls - You're gonna burn

Don't look in those sunken eyes
Don't look and you'll stay alive
Don't laugh in the face of Death or your tongue will blister
Can't die until Satan says you die
And Satan takes your soul, in the face of Death, or your tongue will blister

Don't look
in those sunken eyes
Don't look
and you stay alive
Don't laugh
in the face of Death or your tongue will blister
Can't die
til Satan says you die
The Devil takes your soul
With all his wrath he calls the reaper

When Death calls - This is the hours of dying
When Death calls - The spirit of man can't be free
When Death calls - Oh there's no tommorrow
When Death calls - Just an evil shadow
When Death calls - Feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying
When Death calls - You're gonna burn, burn, burn, oh no
When Death calls - Heaven is closer
When Death calls - I can feel it it's gonna take you down
When Death calls - Can you hear it calling you
When Death calls - Tell me, tell me, won't you say it?
When Death calls - Ain't gonna send us down

Kill in the Spirit World

There's something wrong
there's a chill in the air
And the blood in my veins running colder
The Eastern sky
is beginning to silver
And the words that you speak start to falter
The seal is broken
the oath has been crossed
In the house of the dead there's a taker
Some say that this
is the ultimate sin
When the spirit world turns to the altar

There's been a kill in the spirit world
There's been a kill in the spirit world

Behold the dead
clutching at fading hands
out of reach forever
"In glory die"
calls the voice from the void
You assassin has cursed every spectre
The seal is broken
the oath has been crossed
And the house of the dead seeks the master
Stretching every muscle
I wait for the end
And the kiss on the wind whispers murder

There's been a kill in the spirit world
There's been a kill in the spirit world
There's been a kill in the spirit world

When heaven is closer
it's pleasure and pain
Blood kill in the spirit world

Did you see
another in black
Is the blood in your veins running colder?
If you did
then there's no turning back
As the spirit world turns to the altar.
The seal is broken
the oath has been crossed
And the house of the dead seeks the master
Stretching every muscle
I wait for the end
And a kiss on the wind whispers murder

There's been a kill in the spirit world
There's been a kill in the spirit world

Oh here it comes
Your seal is broken
the Eastern sky is beginning to silver
There's something wrong
there's a chill in the air
You feel the evil
I feel the evil
Oh somebody whispers murder.

A kiss on the wind whispers murder

Call of the Wild

In this last and final hour
you can't hide
There's nowhere now
that you can run
All eyes are on you
like a lost eternal light
Princes and kings
and demons with wings
Summon your fears from hell

It's the call of the wild
Calling you

In this last macabre hour
witches cry
And turn to dust
before the moon
Many spirits are lost forever
one survives
To call the tune of Lucifer

It's the call of the wild
Calling you

Hero
only in the grave are there no dreams ah.
Hero
don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems

All you gotta do now is stay free
You're the one they turn to when Hell screams

Fear of the Devil
has no place among the brave
Faced with pain
there's a battle to be won
All eyes are on you
like a lost eternal light
Princes and kings
demons with wings
Summon your fears from hell

It's the call of the wild
Calling you

Hero
only in the grave are there no dreams
Hero
don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems

Hero
only in the grave are there no dreams
Hero
don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems

Hero
you got the fear of the Devil
Hero
oh burning your soul
Hero
it's the call of the wild
Hero
oh tearing your soul

Black Moon

Oh the Devil
is rising with the moon he cries and my blood runs cold
Oh no never
was the darkness so black no light and nowhere to go.
My spirit
is crying for a love so tired of being alone
I remember
he came here to steal, and you, the stealer of souls.

I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name
Oh it's calling my name

I've been blinded
lost and confused darkness will call me no more
Aye Heaven
is no friend of mine no god ever knocked on my door

I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name
It's calling out my name oh it's calling

I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name
Oh it's calling my name.

I'm standing
on the dark side of time reaching for the palm of your hand
She's weaving
an unholy light and calls from Lucifer's land

I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name
An angel of hell is rising
heaven's no friend of mine
I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name

I see a Black Moon rising
and it's causes so much pain
An angel of hell is rising
heaven's no friend of mine
I see a Black Moon rising
and it's calling out my name

My spirit's crying for love
oh Heaven's no friend of mine
angel of hell is rising

See a Black Moon rising

Nightwing

Nightwing has stirred
and taken to flight
The silence is over
he's shattered the night
No other hunter
has the power or the grace
He is the master of this place
So listen my friend
Nightwing flies again

They say he comes
for those whose souls are weak
And call his name
upon the wind
The night is cold
and thick with mystery
Oh I can feel his beating wings

Tell every creature of the night
The kill is around the bend
Nightwing flies again

Tell every creature of the night
The kill is around the bend
Nightwing flies again

Nightwing has stirred
and taken to flight
The silence is over
he's shattered the night
Life ain't for giving
and forgivin' ain't free
No soul will rest
while the hunted run free

So tell every creature of the night
The kill is around the bend
Ooh listen my friend
Nightwing flies again
