The Tale Of A Nocturnal Empress Lyrics - Hades

The wolves howled at the moon 

That chilly autumn night 

And cold winds whispered through 

The scattered leaves 

When the first light from 

A late, yet crimson dawn, 

Shone through the morning mist... 

She was dead... and so reborn. 

Caught in a web of silver beams 

Thrown from an ocean of stars 

A sea that from now, always 

Shall haunt her existence 

She exists only in darkness 

She feeds from the vein of 

An innocent child 

Yet she is strong 

Unbound by the chains of 

Mortality 

Sometimes under 

The ocean of stars 

She gazes at the black horizon 

Wistful thoughts of death 

She wishes for sleep 

She has no quest 

Just an eternal lust for blood 

Always walk alone - eternally! 

She is the eye of the raven 

She is the ear of the wolf 

She is mockery itself 

Of the holy trinity 

She is the pleasure conceived 

>From your pain 

The Empress of nocturnals 

Thou shalt fear 

And thou shalt serve 

And thou shalt... die 

In her embracing kiss of death
