Powers of Darkness

When the light begins to pale
See the dance of the thresher's flail
We've sure had a lovely time
Lately, lately

It comes in waves, it comes inside
Its ebb and flow is like a lunar tide
Now the sky is falling
Something from the void is calling
Whispering a promise of strange delights

Powers of darkness rise
Let the night come alive
Powers of darkness
Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

Persephone the flower queen
For winter's thaw her coming's just the thing
Well, she hasn't been on time
Lately, lately

The end is ever drawing nigh
Without light life's not easy on the eyes
Take your leave
Find us where the shadows meet
What awaits us on the other side?

Powers of darkness
End of times, endless night
Powers of darkness rise
Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

You know that something's wrong
When the curtain's drawn away
Oh, will you wander on
And in the darkness learn the secrets of the grave?

Powers of darkness rise
Let the night come alive
Powers of darkness
Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs

Powers of darkness
End of times, endless night
Powers of darkness rise
Raise your hands to the Mother of Sighs
