Mother Night Lyrics


Night is all around us, fire shines in walls of pain

And far beyond the horizon the enemy wait for the slain

May your hearts and souls be brave, may your knives and arrows be swift

For the wolves begin to howl up to the sky.

Behold the impaler in his fury and rage

Let him guide us to the battle let the spears to stain with blood

For a storm is coming and shall shake all Christendom

Let the voices rise and cry to break the clouds

Oh mother night put thy arms around me

Protect me with thy black embrace

Thus shine in the blade of my sword

For the dragon roars proclaiming

With fire my name forever.

Death beneath us carried away the air of fear

The moon is red and colored by the piercing tears of woe

Chaos falls and strikes to all the lives that stand in front

Wings of leather sing like a choir: “Save me from myself”

Dark knight please return and be with me

My breath and thought shall always be with thee

And love is here when the sun has gone

For thy eyes glow with the burning fire of shining stars.
