What Flowers Hide Songtext
von Goatron

Buried under dust of time
The town hides in the smoke and dying light
As fires fade the masquerade
Of the witches carries on
The Haunting silence of all life
Tightens my grip around the knife
Blood upon the blade has long since dried
The edge reveals what flowers hide
Approaching the house
I am quiet like mouse
I know that the witches await
The scent of dead flora
That seem to adore her
Surrounding the black garden gates
Ants lead the way
Through the path fire-paved
Thousands of roses abloom
Betrayal in mind
All good left behind
I hide in the shadows of moon


What flowers hide
Flickers of blue in the trees
As the wisps enjoy the night
Luring unsuspecting souls
To necromantic rites
From dark to light
From light to dark
I crawl the labyrinth of thorns
Three distant figures
Holding hands
Spreading wings and horns
Wind blows through willows
And all things unhallowed
Unleashed from pulsating abyss
Times six gone through hell
Immune to their spells
I cover my ears from their hiss
Snuffed are the torches
As writhing old corpses
Rise from their flowery graves
What flowers hide
Is now in plain sight
Mere shadows of forgotten names
What flowers hide
Rejuvenating my old blade
Let it remember blood once more
A brief moment, a thought
This ends here
No more
Number one cuts the stitches
Of one of the witches
The night air is painted in red
Now screams the hag
And falls flat on her back
Down to the flowery bed
Second and third
Witness the rebirth
Two wicked sisters go down
Not even the moon
Weeps for their lives
As their blood dampens the ground
The mother now speaks
In half muted screams
What is your business with me?
The girl for my love
And the father and child
Shall be what flowers hide
What flowers hide
