Do you see the spire Choked with briar and thorn Do you hear us chanting Our hymnal to the horns Do you feel a presence Among the stone and moss Are you in procession All praise to Behemoth Come with us down Down to the forest church Unhallowed ground Down in the forest church Once lost but found Found in the forest church We’re all hellbound Down in the forest church Do you see the woodsmoke Swirling in the nave Will you kneel beside us By the crumbling graves Have you looked to Angel In hawthorn crown adorned She speaks the tongue of Satan It’s time to meet our Lord Come with us down Down to the forest church Unhallowed ground Down in the forest church Once lost but found Found in the forest church We’re all hellbound Down in the forest church The forest church is a place we only know The forest church is where we go When the moon is a sharp sickle in the sky Hanging yellow, pale and low Come with us down Down to the forest church Unhallowed ground Down in the forest church Once lost but found Found in the forest church We’re all hellbound Down in the forest church

High upon the hillside In search of the arcane I took a sip of Soma To ward away the pain Widdershins I wandered Round the barrow mound I heard a rhythm beating Somewhere underground All around me they stood Tall and moss-grown It was then that I knew I was not alone What ancient power was calling me home? I stood inside the circle, and heard the song of the stones As the moon was rising An doorway opened wide Drawn toward the darkness I found myself inside There within the shadows I saw them worshipping They bowed before their master In the Court of the Barrow King All around me they stood As the moor-fires burned Then it was that I knew I would not return What ancient power was calling me home? I stood inside the circle, and heard the song of the stones Can you hear the stones Calling you back home?

I walk alone down the old straight track, through the wildwood The olden oaks seem to watch me as I pass Creeping deep down the holloways, willow-witching The pendulum unveils the hidden path I walk the ancient ways Where no mortal soul has roamed I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone On the trail of the Great Unknown Psilocybin my only guide, revelator I can see the patterns in the leaves The ash vortex, the spiral track, time is slowing I have found the road to Lavondyss I walk the ancient ways In the realm of the mythago I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone On the trail of the Great Unknown The clearest way into the universe is through a forest wilderness I walk the ancient ways From oak and ash to ice and stone I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone On the trail of the Great Unknown I walk the ancient ways I’m on the trail

You who would lay claim to Dartmoor You’ll never tame this heathen land Above Wistman’s Wood The thunder of hooves Heralds the host of the damned When you hear the horn blow above Crockern Tor You’ll know that you’ll never escape from the moor Above the reaves we ride Led by the horned one A phantom cavalcade We are the Wild Hunt Galloping high over the mire The hunters in the sky Woden is harking us onward Blooding the hounds of the Yeth At Black-a-Tor Copse Hard on their course They take sight of your misting breath When you hear a howling come across the sky You’ll know that this will be the day that you die Above the reaves we ride Led by the horned one A phantom cavalcade We are the Wild Hunt Galloping high over the mire The hunters in the sky Hitting our stride, see the whites of our eyes The hunters in the sky We’re closing in Our hounds at bay We are the Hunt You are the prey Hear these words, you who lie bloodied and torn No man can own what is common to all Above the reaves we ride Led by the horned one A phantom cavalcade We are the Wild Hunt Galloping high over the mire The hunters in the sky The last thing you see as the light leaves your eyes The hunters in the sky

Those Carpathian days I would dream of you Long before you were born I’d hear a choir of wolves singing out to you At the height and the heart of the storm I have hunted from Whitby to Whitechapel For a glimpse of your absinthe eyes No apotropaic will ward me off For you have always been my bride Down all of the centuries I have waited to hear your name (Mina) Down all of the centuries I have longed for the light of your flame I've crossed oceans of time to find you Oceans of time I've crossed oceans of time to find you Oceans of time And now I will make you mine Drinking you up like wine You’ve seen your last sunrise, so come drifting in oceans of time Four hundred years since I saw you last My hunger only grows Let me give you the gift of life eternal Elisabeta, come home I've crossed oceans of time to find you Oceans of time I've crossed oceans of time to find you Oceans of time And now I will make you mine Countess and concubine You’ve seen your last sunrise, so come drifting in oceans of time I know you feel it Mina I feel it too You’re part of me now, Mina I’m part of you
