"Fire Thorn"
The sky is ablaze
Red, violet, vivid orange
The solar orb returns to
The stable as I gaze

Fire night
Moon so bright
Pupils shrink
Horsemen alight
Souls revealed
Animals cower
During the night's
Bewitching hour

Cloves of garlic
Grains of thyme
Put off the inevitable
Everyone tries

Blow your pipe
Tune the lyre
I'll be the one
To get the thorn of fire

Fire night
Moon so bright
Pupils shrink
Horsemen alight
Souls revealed
Animals cower
During the night's
Bewitching hour

The music's playing
The cauldron aflame
The feeling's enough
To drive someone insane

A sharp end at
A drop of blood
Take off the black
Executioner's hood

Everyone hides and
No one's brave
The certain visiting hour
When devils come to play

A skeleton's smile distorts
His misshapen jowls
On a lone remote cliff
The gray wolf howls

Fire night
Moon so bright
Pupils shrink
Horsemen alight
Souls revealed
Animals cower
During the night's
Bewitching hour

Cloves of garlic
Grains of thyme
Put off the inevitable
Wait for the sublime

The shadows get tired
The dark starts to fade
The ball returns
But they're still afraid
