Samhain - Jess and the Ancient Ones

'What, what is this, where am I'

'Where you’ve always wanted to be, baby, you’re at a

What a party, look, beautiful women, all for you

And fabulous food, that’s, champagne

It’s what you’ve always dreamed of right?'

'Oh I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming again'

'Not this time, it’s real

Now it’s real'

And at midnight, according to the old chronicles

There would be convocation of sorcerers

Devils, demons, goblins, ghouls

And they would thereupon proceed to hold an orgy

In a manner and fashion too sinful even to contemplate

And woe to the unfortunate mortals

Who would be compelled to participate in these hellish rituals

That were profanely called a Witch’s Sabbath

A Witch’s Sabbath

Samhain falling, Samhain falling

Come on and raise your loving knives

We cut through the stains of mind

New age dying, new age dying

Turn on your psychic radio

Hear the sonic waves of A and O

I got one ticket to ride

A Death surfer against time

Scarlet man we hear you

Brace yourselves, here comes the truth

Samhain

Take all life away

Return it if we may

Learn to love today

'Cos everything we want is to be loved

Death’s head calling, death’s head calling

Behind your flowers laughed the dead

The trips they took you deeper still

We are strangers, we are strange

The ones who hope to see the change

The rolling stones of Eschaton

I got one ticket to ride

A Death surfer against time

Scarlet man we hear you

Brace yourselves, here come the truth

You told us the golden dawn awaits forever to hold us

And walk with ease towards the endless sea

The waves of change will lead you into my arms of gold

Then you’ll understand the things I’ve told

Samhain

I know that we are vain

With joined hands we will say

Take it all away

Samhain

Take all life away

Return it if we may
