Black Death Songtext
von Pesta

A plague walked among us
As people fled in fear of their cities
But the disease remained, and soon death was everywhere

Men hated each other
Parents abandoned their sick children
Wives were dropped back, husbands were buried

Bodies were left abandoned at home
Because there was no one to make them a funeral

Several refused to leave
The house due to the dying
Friars and nuns were to take care of pacients


Monasteries and convents
Were soon deserted
They were also severely affected

Bodies were left abandoned at home
Because there was no one to make them a funeral

Many wanted to confess his sins
Express his last wishes
Lived in fear, in their heads did not understand

But the houses of the dead remained open
With all their belongings, jewels and gold
With open arms, the Black Death was waiting

Bodies were left abandoned at home
Because there was no one to make them a funeral
