Grafvitnir - Witches' Dance Lyrics


The gospel of Alpha's Omega

whispered by serpentine tounges

The embers that burn in the kingdoms forlorn

the fiery breath in our lungs

A pilgrimage throughout vast oceans of time

Volcanic eruptions of creed

treading the path of the serpent of old

crusade of the serpentine breed

Witches in trance, through the mist veils they dance

under a frost moon so pale

Riding the skies as the universe dies

clinging on to the snake's tail

Opening the eye of the spirit

so that the realm of beyond can be reached

The gates to the afterworld opened

the force of the other unleashed

Exploring the primordial mysteries

beheld through the eyes of the dead

gazing through desolate wastelands

with the welkin on fire

Illuminated by primeval flames

derived from the gaze of the snake

Feeling his flames in the blood of my veins

visions no longer opaque

The secrets of ages, enigmas of old

their mysteries scrawled in my brain

Thousands of cauldrons now glow in the dark

as black as the flames they contain

Riding the night winds with furious hate

through portals undreamed of by men

the nightmarish brilliance of eternity

the brilliance and blaze of the end

Atlantean wisdom and Thulean flames

traversing ethereal plains

The secrets of ages, enigmas of old

The blood of the snake in my veins

The boundless forever and ever

nothingness unbound and free

Riding on storm winds through thundering clouds

on death's wings over black seas

Witches in trance, through the mist veils they dance

under a frost moon so pale

Riding the skies as the universe dies

clinging on to the snake's tail

Spiritual rapture, the skyline's in flames

opening gates of the soul

Reaching for regions for mortals concealed

as storms of the netherworld roll

Riding the night winds to eternity

to terrains beyond time and space

Witches in trance, through the mist veils they dance

through portals revealed in the haze

Opening the eye of the spirit

So that the realm of beyond can be reached

the gates to the afterworld opened

the force of the other unleashed

Exploring the primordial mysteries

beheld through the eyes of the dead

gazing through desolate wastelands

with the welkin on fire overhead
