lyrics

Queen of Darkness

She was a noble queen
Now damned for eternity
Revenge on the savage men
Is all that she seeks

In her sleep
She was raped by a sworn enemy
Banished by her king
She could not be redeemed

The accused
Was the victim in truth
But he refused to see reality
Despite her most amazing beauty

In a moonlit forest she met an immortal
And he said to her,
“I bestow unto thee, dark gifts of ecstasy
Drink from me, and thou wilt live eternally”

He sank his teeth into her neck
And poured his blood onto her tongue
She then gave herself to darkness
To remain forever young

Through the pain of disdain
She was torn apart
The scorn of forlorn
Has consumed her heart

Blackened and saddened she has become
Away with the light
And only with the night
She is one

On a cold winter night
With the full moon shining red
The alluring belladonna
Lured the King to bed and said,
“I can fulfill thine every desire”

Out of the darkness her light shined bright
And gave him sight
She pulled him tight into her breasts
She warmed his flesh and said,
“I can take thee even higher”.

Her eyes then pierced his soul
Suddenly making him cold
She paralyzed him with her bloody kiss
Then he was told,
“I am going to set thee on fire”

Burned alive
With a conscious mind
Laughing at his strife
The succubus took his life

She is the seductive temptress
With long black hair and lips blood red
Fierce green eyes and skin glowing white
With curves to kill the men that she wants dead

The wrath of her anger
And manipulation will live on
To persuade more foolish minds in the night
Between every dusk and dawn

For the void inside her
Was not filled
By eviscerating and disintegrating
The worthless scum that she had killed

She was prosperous and revered for a time
But now this Queen of Darkness
May never find
Her peace of mind

…
