lyrics

Black Madonna at the Gate of Dawn
Cobblestones and bloody thorns
Black Madonna at the Gate of Dawn
Beggars tears and drunken scorn

Black Madonna at the Gate of Dawn
A terrible beauty, yet to be born
Black Madonna at the Gate of Dawn
Darken the soul and the flesh is torn!

Hey! Hey!
Do what they say
Hey! Hey!
You’re fading away
Hey! Hey!
Let me tell you today,
Life isn’t sickness
Blood is your witness!

Hey hey!
the inner decay
Hey hey!
Dissolve it away
Hey! Hey!
I’ll tell you today
You’re chained til you choke,
It’s a bloody joke!

Black Madonna

Broken tower on a castle hill
An iron wolf is howling still
the thinking and feeling, the blood and the will
come crashing down as the rivers spill

Shrouded Mother hangs overhead
an Immaculate heart fills souls with dread
With feelings of how they could be living instead
If only they tried, they could make gold from lead

Hey! Hey!
Do what they say
Hey! Hey!
You’re fading away
Hey! Hey!
Let me tell you today,
Life isn’t sickness
and your blood is your witness!

Hey hey!
the inner decay
Hey hey!
You can dissolve it away
Hey! Hey!
Let me tell you today
You’re chained til you choke,
It’s a bloody joke!

River’s water
Darkest mother
Sword-bearing father

Black Madonna
