Thee I invoke, born-less one, all woman, pure predator
Wherein conspiracy and impulse dwell
Like a seething fall from grace
Thee, I worshipThou art darkest Gabrielle
Lilith who rode the steed
Thou art pale Hecate
Rising from ThessalyCrush their unworthy idols
No church shall bar our path
Seductive evil, drink your fill
Of the bleeding Christ in your armsYou are in my dreams
The darkness in my eyes
The rapture in my screams
Black goddessNothing will keep us apart
We could kill them all
If desire tore free
Our union is one, sweet, sinful eveAnd the night draws in beside her
As we embrace the dark side by side
I pour my soul to those eyes full of fire
To harvest the seed plowed inside herArchangel, snare the flesh
Suck dry the ebbing wound
Leave them lifeless and broken
My belovedOh, how I have craved for you
You so pure and otherworldly with your scent of winter
Am I to bleed myself dry
To see your delight?And the fear retreats forever
(Come to me, come to me, come to me, black goddess arise)
When my secrets are buried in thine
(Come to me, come to me, come to me, black goddess arise)Under seven stars we came together
(Come to me, come to me, come to me, black goddess arise)
To plot the new age's decline
(Come to me, come to me, arise)Ishtar, my Queen
Come forth to me
And help me seize
My future from the house of deathThat in the release of immortality
I should slay their fucking Nazarene
Ah, the lies, the Jew
I kill for youYou are in my dreams
The darkness in my eyes
The rapture in my screams
Black goddessHidden lusts will break the gates and swarm
As love secretes the thrill for war
The virgin raped shall seek to whore
She-wolf bare your snarling jawAngel, angelThee, I invoke, born-less one
All woman, pure predator
Wherein conspiracy and impulse dwell
Don't ring my bellThou art darkest Gabrielle
Lilith who rode the steed
Thou art pale Hecate
Rising from Thessaly
