lyrics

"Silence is broken, silence is lost.
The roaring of night is shattering the frost.
The calling of wild in these blackened woods.
Silence is broken, Silence is lost.
Hail the damned and the loners
Hear the stonewitch deceivers

Staring at this mountain that the fog has once climbed.
Upon the top, we searched for the skies.
Sat on this wood throne, this feral queen (she said)
Open the gates, while opening your veins.

And then the odd faun, the swarming vice into the souls.
The chants resounding, a blade on the wrists.
Silhouettes of the painless are tearing our thoughts.
We opened our mind, and flew to dark highs.

Hail raven raven,
do you see the damned deep inside these sad minds ?
Hail Brave
Hail owls, hail wolfen,
do you hear me calling to join my elders lost ?
Hell Crave
I believed in the sunset... and the stonewitch claim.

Hail outcast wanderers,
welcome again into this suicidal gangbang.
Hail Brave
Roaming faun around us,
appeal the dark, and the Queen bitch's blade.
Hell Crave
Still believing in the sunset, and the stonewitch claim.

She spoke some language, a forbidden tongue
To the falcons of Elders, and worms of the lies.
Swallow this odd brew, she spits at the world
Calling the prophets as she's calling some whores.
Hail outcast wanderers,
welcome again into this suicidal gangbang.
Hail Brave
Roaming faun around us,
appeal the dark, and the Queen bitch's blade.
Hell Crave
Still believing in the sunset, and the stonewitch claim.

Horns hard hard
Horns hard hard

Horns hard hard
I see the
Skies High Bright
Veins opened

Wide Sighs forever

Silence is broken, silence is lost.
Silence is broken, silence is lost.
Silence is broken, silence is lost."
