Pools of black eternity   Sweeping down on brightly burning fires   When comes the righteous ones   Bringing the servants of leechy throngs      Angels, remembering every promise   Black vise crushing the feathers white   Come pain deliver us in darkness   Unknown, the promise of their demise      Intercepting a world   Dwelling in disbelief      Were able to exterminate   You Down-to-Earthlings   With truth that would toss you into suicidal grief   What renaissance this hour will bring      Dark grimoires of sorceries   Filled with spells of cursed conjurations   Bring down the witching hour   From earth to ashes we all shall fall      Those eyes, ebony enchanted   Pass on the undenying truth   Of youth there isn't any left   What came from this insanity?      Bring on pain and suffering   The answer for crimes   Plead as much you can   You liar, you fucking liar      Pools of black eternity   Sweeping down on brightly burning fires   Bring down the witching hour   From earth to ashes we all shall fall      Free men, shall come as the unwanted   Forcing the old ones to leave in vain   At last denial bringing justice   Cruel fate, they are forever slain      [Bring down the witching hour - Comments]      [This lyric was done as a sort of homage to all the witches that died at the stakes in medieval Europe. The lyric was done some time before Narrenschiff joined the band, but it was a lyric that both he and I liked a lot so we decided to keep it as it was.The lyric is all about how the righteous people of the church killed all these women and the masses loved them for it. But now, today the witches are returning in great numbers and today we have no hallowed men to slay them for their knowledge. In the studio we found that it could do with a couple of lines and Narrenschiff added the final touch, so it's basically a joint effort. The title itself is partly inspired by Anne Rice and her Mayfair Witches.]   [- Tobias]
