After The Witch by Trash Bats Lyrics
If you're a sinner you know your place in life
If you're unholy, don't walk these woods at night
This forest it speaks and it calls to you in your dreams
So listen close darling, this tale isn't what it seems
Long ago down an ancient road in a place where the people don't tread
To haunted hollow in the center of the woods where even the air falls dead
They say a witch lived here, claim she stalked these parts
An old ghost from many years ago
No one lеft to tell the tale, so this is what I know
The young men went missing, the fairest women next
All those who returned claimed to have been hexed
Terror gripped over those in reach, unholy voices in the air
Madness struck and blood was sought, the holy lord fled in fear
If you don't believe in malicious beings, I advise you start believing now
Cause the beast it feeds on doubt and pain deep inside that rotting hollow
She promised sweets and delicious things and called to them in their sleep
They loaded guns and set the woods to burn to try a cure the evil things
After the witch, the madness stayed and it seemed to poison the land
Even in death, the terror held, and they fell into Satan's lap
Offers of prayers and sacrifice, they were left to feed on the weak
All were lost to despair and pain, and snuffed out with a scream
After the witch the beast set in and the forest where we now stand
Was given to the dark unholy things and cleansed of the touch of man
The shadows here still call for blood and I can tell you this I know is true
An offered soul, a pure sacrifice, and that is why I've brought you
If you're unholy, don't walk these woods at night
This forest it speaks and it calls to you in your dreams
So listen close darling, this tale isn't what it seems
Long ago down an ancient road in a place where the people don't tread
To haunted hollow in the center of the woods where even the air falls dead
They say a witch lived here, claim she stalked these parts
An old ghost from many years ago
No one lеft to tell the tale, so this is what I know
The young men went missing, the fairest women next
All those who returned claimed to have been hexed
Terror gripped over those in reach, unholy voices in the air
Madness struck and blood was sought, the holy lord fled in fear
If you don't believe in malicious beings, I advise you start believing now
Cause the beast it feeds on doubt and pain deep inside that rotting hollow
She promised sweets and delicious things and called to them in their sleep
They loaded guns and set the woods to burn to try a cure the evil things
After the witch, the madness stayed and it seemed to poison the land
Even in death, the terror held, and they fell into Satan's lap
Offers of prayers and sacrifice, they were left to feed on the weak
All were lost to despair and pain, and snuffed out with a scream
After the witch the beast set in and the forest where we now stand
Was given to the dark unholy things and cleansed of the touch of man
The shadows here still call for blood and I can tell you this I know is true
An offered soul, a pure sacrifice, and that is why I've brought you
