1589 Songtext
von Powerwolf

1589, face the court of force divine
Filed under torment and fire
Terminate his fate on October 28th
Sentenced a werewolf, a beast

Deep in the night, when they hunted in hatred
Circled the wolf in the wild
And in pale lunar light, and the shape of a savage
Guided by anger they′re blind

(1589) Peter Stump was killed in twilight
(1589) Caught and filed sacrificed
(1589) In the name of the high and mighty
(1589) Torture awaits tonight


1589, said the murderer was lupine
Women and children devoured
Slayed on full moon nights, left but traces of the bites
One handed phantom unleashed

Creep through the night, in his fever and madness
Hunter and victim alike

(1589) Peter Stump was killed in twilight
(1589) Caught and filed sacrificed
(1589) In the name of the high and mighty
(1589) Torture awaits tonight

1589, with all spectators stand in line
Head off, break up this beast

Feast on his cries as the torture is calling
Hear as the screams tear the night
Burning flames of the pyre and the crowd, they are roaring
Stare as beheaded he lies


(1589) In the night of a thousand fires
(1589) Born a wild, died alike
(1589) By the hand of the court and prior
(1589) Legend beyond your time
