Blood Sacrifice - Visigoth

The late October moon rises through the fog

Alabaster witness to the rite

Hooded figures bowed deep within the trees

Thirteen gathered for the sacrifice

Deep in the forest thirteen hooded figures stand

The hour of the ritual is now at hand

They’ve gathered for the sacrifice

A gnarled hand extends above the altar stone

An incantation rises from its hoary throat

A spell invoked to claim the night

Incantation, evil magick rise

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice upon the altar stone

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice unto the pentagram

The pale moon bathes the virgin’s skin in pallid light

Entranced by verses tolled from forms deep in the night

Her final breath is drawn in blood

As crimson creeps across the cracked and ancient stone

Five-pointed star ignites and belches forth black smoke

Demonic forces summoned forth

Incantation, evil magick rise

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice upon the altar stone

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice unto the pentagram

With human offal offering, we gaze into the great abyss

We summon thee, oh antichrist

This virgin’s blood so red and pure will bind your will unto our own

Bow before the horned god

Rise on wings as black as night

Summoned by the sacrifice

Chaos reigns and death is come

Twisted horns eclipse the sun

The late October sky streaked with blood and fire

Yawning gateway to the underworld

From the altar the young girl rises with cold black haunted eyes

Chosen queen of a brimstone kingdom come

The reborn empress of hell

Incantation, evil magick rise

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice upon the altar stone

Blood sacrifice, an ancient rite

Blood sacrifice unto the pentagram
