lyrics

One head will be wrapped in sand tonight!
You bring my being into the light.
The true me that expels only hatred towards all who oppose me!

The instrumental clatter of our blades reunite thoughts of a blacksmith age. The thin light reflecting from your sword melts the sand into jagged green films. Once we were so young, but it was so long ago!
All there is with maturity is bloodshed, spill it along the coast.

I want you dead because you love me! I want you dead because you know me!

The snakes travel far to reject the sound that we produce.
We speak in words too harsh for their entertainment.
Your face is absent and your struggle is held by the goblet of my fortune!

I need you dead because you love me! I need you to die on my behalf!
I know you love me, and now I care! I truly care!

The eyes of a wife have stopped my rage, the beauty of the land testifies against this curse. Without words she speaks to my soul. You called me and the demons fled. Oh love, your face has saved me!

From the day you called, the demons did expel, screaming terror into hell itself!

The day I lifted the veil in your eyes, a violet shade glimmered in the light!
