Sabbat - Kamaitachi

The day is done I turn my gaze towards the setting sun, I taste the incense on the air, I hear the sound of drums, The chill of the evening descends. All day long I've been working hard for the man, But now's the time to ditch this skin and be who I am, Some people just don't understand, You can keep your Devil I'll dance with Pan! For I will fly free, On the wings of ecstasy, And I will dance free, To the music of Faerie. Imbolc, Beltane, Lughnasadh and Samhain, Equinox and Solstice, On hilltops in forests tonight, To the Sabbat I will ride. I will dance with the Fearie Queen beneath the silver moon, I will taste the honey mead and chant the Witch's Rune, My heart with the pulse of the land. Witness now the union of chalice and of blade, Of life and death and life again the union is made, By power of land and of sea, By power of will, so mote it be! The night is done the sun will rise on a brand new day, And I along with millions go out to earn our pay, People see just what they want to see. But I have danced with the Faerie Queen, shared the mead of the sun. I have worn the Oaken Crown before the Horned One, And I'll know it's time to return, When I see those Pagan fires burn!

Faustus begin thine incantations, Take good care to draw thy circle true, By god must you prevail - For if you fail these Demons make a meal of you. Your soul shall be their meat - A kingly feast for them to eat, Beware your future at hand, Alas for thou art dammed. [Good angel:] "Faustus seek repentance, Abjure this evil art, Cease this wretched wickedness And cleans thy foolish heart, For the evil that once served you Has made of you a slave, And transformed your bed of roses' To a premature grave." Then in a mighty flash of light Before thee mephistopheles appears. [Faustus:] "I charge thee go and change thy shape, For you fill my soul with fear. Now swift-as-hell back to the fire Return an old franciscan friar." [Mephistopheles:] "Mortal command me while you can, For surely thou art dammed." [Bad angel:] "Faustus be thou resolute In what thou wilst perform, Ignore these righteous idiots - Their trinity to scorn, For years of depravation you receive eternal life, But fame and wealth and maidens-fair Are by far the better price." [Faustus:] "Temptations all around me, Is there nowhere i can turn? Hellfire is all about me, Now i know that i shall burn, I face excommunication for the error Of my ways - to burn in hell for all my days. Bell, book and candle, candle, book, bell, Forwards and backwards to damn me to hell. Jehova i beg thee have mercy on my soul. Be gone foul beast that stands before me, My god! the midnight hour chimes, Oh lord have mercy he comes for me, I haven't got much time. I am awake this is no dream, I cry - but terror takes my scream, And now my future is at hand, Also for i am dammed." [Good angel:] "Think for just one moment And i'm sure that you will see, The moral of this story - That what shall be must be. He who gives his soul to hell, Must dare to pay the price, He versed in divinity must Live a noble life - Or else he is damned!

A sea breeze echoes softly It's song echoes through your mind, Leaves you thinking of tomorrow And the life you left behind. Come turn your head to face theWind that fills enchanted sails, And drives you to your destiny As silent sirens wail. A sad lament for travellers Held in the hand of fate, Your future stands upon the prow Your past drowns in the wake. What chance is there for sanity When madness takes the helm, And steers you on a downwardSpiral to his lonely realm? Watch the night-sky- seagulls fly And in the heavens play, Yet even angels stoop and still Pick nothing up they say. There are things far more sinister That haunt the midnight air, The sirens serenade a warning Telling you: "Beware- the waves upon the waterAre like ripples in your mind, And the shadows cast by nature Show the future you may find. As rivers flow because they know That they must join the sea- Thus you will be carried on to Meet your destiny." Do Dark Horses Dream Of Nightmares? Standing on a strange shore- This desolate coastline, It offers cold comfort. Very little more than the skyFor a blanket The earth for my bed. THE SISTERS OF WYRD: "Thethreads upon the loom of life Have foreordained your coming here, So weep not mannikin of mankind Dry your worthless puppet-tears." Unanswered questions- How they play on my mind, Now that darkness is falling and Still there's no sign of my guide. Either I have been betrayed- They have left me to die, Or worse still at this moment he lies- An unwitting victim by brigands attacked, Left naked and dead with a knife In his back. Childhood terrors return to me now, From the rand stench of fear in The sweat on my brow. Deciet and despair are to me Kith and kin, Seduced into slumber- My nightmare begins. "Welcome - welcome to my domain, I have been biding my time. Watching and waiting - But now you are mine. Weaving the web that entwines you, Like a puppet you play on the end Of your strings 'till the end of Your days." Daylight flees as night gives chase I'm held in panics dank embrace, I smother in his cold caress -The sum of all my worthlessness. I have been told to thank the Lord For all that He will send, But if death should come to meet me - Must I greet him as a friend? Now I see that this quest is A test of my fidelity -Has God forsaken me? When maddness sings his lullaby a Nightmare filled with unknown things - To cast aspersion on my sanity. Faith starts to flounder in A mind torn apart, My thoughts move in time with The beat of my heart A creature of habit I make easy prey, Cross faith and fire cannot Hold at bay the beast that Pursues me - The end drawing near. My soul keeps no secrets - He knows what I fear. Flying so high on the wingsOf a dream, Over mountain and forest - 'Cross river and stream. While the creatures that feed Off the doubts I invent Await my arrival with evil intent. "Welcome - welcome to my domain, I have been biding my time. Watching and waiting - But now you are mine. Weaving the web that entwines you, Like a puppet you play on the end Of your strings 'till the end of Your days." So in that twilight world that Lies amidst life and death I dream, And writhe in fitful slumber no-one Hears mjy silent screams. Except the horses head that stares With black and lifeless eyes, Atop its totem glaring as it mocks My helpless cries. Now I see that this quest is A test of my fidelity -Has God forsaken me? When maddness sings his lullaby a Nightmare filled with unknown things - To cast aspersion on my sanity. Shapeless form surround me Casting shadows in the night, I feel their breath upon me- Catch their faces in the light. Somnambulistic hunters come To prey upon my fears - As peals of psycopathic laughter Echo in my ears. Startled I waken from myDeath-like sleep, Though fearful and shaken I crawl to my feet. Still my memories taunt me - Like ghosts they appear, Forever to haunt me when Darkness draws near. "Welcome - welcome to my domain, I have been biding my time. Watching and waiting - But now you are mine. Weaving the web that entwines you, Like a puppet you play on the end Of your strings 'till the end of Your days." Then fleeing from the terrors At the night before I leave, The remenants of reality behind Me 'neath the trees. Waking in the light of dawn I Pray that God will send - His wisdom now to guide me Through this night-time without end. Now I see that this quest isA test of my fidelity- Has God forsaken me? When madness sings his lullaby a Nightmare filled with unknown things - To cast aspersion on my sanity.
