When the light begins to pale

See the dance of the thresher's flail

We've sure had a lovely time

Lately, lately

It comes in waves, it comes inside

Its ebb and flow is like a lunar tide

Now the sky is falling

Something from the void is calling

Whispering a promise of strange delights

Powers of darkness rise

Let the night come alive

Powers of darkness

Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

Persephone the flower queen

For winter's thaw her coming's just the thing

Well, she hasn't been on time

Lately, lately

The end is ever drawing nigh

Without light life's not easy on the eyes

Take your leave

Find us where the shadows meet

What awaits us on the other side?

Powers of darkness

End of times, endless night

Powers of darkness rise

Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

You know that something's wrong

When the curtain's drawn away

Oh, will you wander on

And in the darkness learn the secrets of the grave?

Powers of darkness rise

Let the night come alive

Powers of darkness

Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

Powers of darkness

End of times, endless night

Powers of darkness rise

Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs
