Clouds pass over the moon Like an eye that shows impending doom Tension in this misty air Souls pass into the room Drawn in by a lost memory You will join them in the moonlight You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in death Time passes like the wind As we race to beat days dusky grin Mornings just a moment away Your body glistens in candlelight As we all look on in fiendish delight The ritual is just beginning Come fulfil the prophecy With our demons of debauchery As virgins and spectres sing This madness will never cease In the dead of night You will follow In the footsteps of many others Who have come before I will show you the altar Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair Your beauty bestowed upon my lair I've loved you before, in other lives But you've never meant as much to me Never meant as much to me as now In this night of sacrifice Where blood is spilt That will never spill again But in your linen robes We want you now We want you now You could never ask for more than that You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in Come fulfil the prophecy With our demons of debauchery This madness will never cease
