Night of the Witches

Why do you fear us like this?
Is it not safe to be surrounded
by nothing but shadows?

Arresting us like this can never be good
if you are ever to be forgiven...

Why do you resent us like this?
Is it not hard enough to find consolation
in the illusory god that has betrayed you?

Why do you question our authority?
You shall never be forgiven...

Facing the night that we'd never conceived.

Facing the nightmare that we'd never believed.

We are all ashes, all dead...  yet not gone.
All along, in love with the shadows...
You are the hunters, we are the preys...
We are all that you've ever known
Yet more than you could bear.

You were not meant to forget our names
For we've always been destined to return.
And it is here, at the end of time,
When all powers given to others
Return to the origin of the mother
To be cleansed, to be renewed,
That we, chanting spells outloud,
Finally come out of the dark.
But remain brides to the night
And daughters to the moon.

We are your only connection to your own godliness.
