lyrics

The Black Death

No more ringing bells, no silent cry 
For those who chose preyer or booze
Or another god
Death was knocking at the door 
The black Lord blowing for last time 
Man sank in the blackness 
No helping hand to grab 
As the plague was spreading hate 
The Lord laughed at the pleb's fate

Lost suffering souls,
black bitter tears
Flying raven's gazes
to the witches 
Deal with the devil selling souls
The bells of death in the reign of

Empty streets
Empty eyes
Empty souls
Empty hearts

"Are the witches the mothers of the plague? 
Or maybe it’s him, the devil himself?
All thatʼs known to us is this terrible truth: 
No priest or doctor can save these lands" 
These painful dark winds whisper to punish sins
Invoking silently evil 
Screaming like a black raven

The wagon of death
wondering down the streets
Withering naive lives
while whiffing its stench 
Bringing back echoes of desperation
And pouring bane in the land of

Empty streets
Empty eyes
Empty souls
Empty hearts
