The Chant
04:36
|

Night it comes and brings the gloom
swirling mists full of doom
the covens gather evil looms
they start chanting
chanting
chanting
Dirge doth start wind doth wail
knife is sharp cannot fail
deathless creaming cold and frail
unearthly chanting
chanting
chanting
Sacrifice for the thrall blood most flow bloods the call
death surrounds ever near
they'll be chanting
chanting
chanting
Night it comes and brings the gloom
swirling mists full of doom

Witches of Islandmagee
04:21
|
|||
Spirit comes with turf and stones
bedding ripped from sleeping bones
fresh hole dug a fresh new grave
nine knots to twist the brave
sheets laid like a corpse in white
unexplained stabbing pains in the night
broken window broken bed
poor sweet Ann washed out and laid
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass howls and wails
Mary points the finger at the accused
fits and shakes when nearing he bruised
even when blinded by the good Lords light
Mary trembles with all her might
Doctor Clergy they both agree
seize the witches of Islandmagee
darkness claims the poor and the week
stop the wickedness the wreak
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass damn and wail
Gather the wretched Carrick gaol bound
stone them, bind them witches have have been found
loose tongues and no Lords prayer
mobs surrounds them wakening nightmare
speaking in tongues and curses we seek
with mounting evidence the trail took not a week
four days in the pillory the sentence set
a year in Carrick dungeon all he law will let
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass lash and wail
Finally released from the cold stone cell
the next week one was found drown in a well
three died mysteriously
all ended in poverty
old age proved not to be free
for them witches of Islandmagee
they were hounded, cursed wherever they were found
all now lie dirty holes in the ground
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass damn and wails
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass thrash and wails
Spitting curses spitting nails spitting broken glass howls and wails

The Reading
04:46
|

The witching hour approaches the clock forgets to chime
The underworld sneaks closer tension starts to climb
Candles cut and readied curtains drawn closed
The air itself does crackle questions are supposed
Is there anybody out there?
Are there otherworldly hosts?
Are there harvesters of magicks?
Are there long forgotten ghosts?
No answers to the issues the silence dark complete
Then just beyond our hearing 'please leave us to our fate'
Ghost roads to haunted towns rain drenched hedgerows
Secrets lies and shadows led us to death door
Is there anybody out there?
Are there otherworldly hosts?
Are there harvesters of magicks?
Are there long forgotten ghosts?
Is there anybody out there?
Are there otherworldly hosts?
Are there harvesters of magicks?
Are there long forgotten ghosts?
And with the black dawn the witch bell does ring
protected for another evening the bird begin to sing
Is there anybody out there?
Are there otherworldly hosts?
Are there harvesters of magicks?
Are there long forgotten ghosts?
Is there anybody out there?
Are there otherworldly hosts?
Are there harvesters of magicks?
Are there long forgotten ghosts?
We know your out there
all the spectral hosts
the gleaners of magicks
The long remembered ghosts

Beldam's Unhexing
03:05

Burn the remnants
Chant the others
Snuff the candle
Haze in aether
Break it's back
Bury it deep
STOP.
It's the Unhexing
Unhexing
Unhexing
Unhexing
