Demons (A Mexican Fiesta)
Clouds pass over the moon
Like an eye that shows impending doom
Tension in this misty air
Souls pass into the room, drawn in by a lost memory
You will join them in the moonlight
You are my offering
Your soul transcends the centuries of pain
Your misery in life is your ecstasy in death
Time passes like the wind
As we race to beat day's dusky grin
Mornings just a moment away
Your body glistens in candlelight
As we all look on in fiendish delight
The ritual is just beginning
Come fulfil the prophecy with our demons of debauchery
As virgins and specters sing
This madness will never cease
In the dead of night, you will follow
In the footsteps of many others who have come before
I will show you, well, the altar
Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair
Your beauty bestowed upon my lair
I've loved you before, in other lives
But you've never meant as much to me
Never meant as much to me as now
In this night of sacrifice
Where blood is spilt that will never spill again
But in your linen robes, we want you now
We want you now
You could never ask for more than that
You are my offering
Your soul transcends the centuries of pain
Your misery in life is your ecstasy in-
Come fulfil the prophecy
With our demons of debauchery
This madness will never cease
Like an eye that shows impending doom
Tension in this misty air
Souls pass into the room, drawn in by a lost memory
You will join them in the moonlight
You are my offering
Your soul transcends the centuries of pain
Your misery in life is your ecstasy in death
Time passes like the wind
As we race to beat day's dusky grin
Mornings just a moment away
Your body glistens in candlelight
As we all look on in fiendish delight
The ritual is just beginning
Come fulfil the prophecy with our demons of debauchery
As virgins and specters sing
This madness will never cease
In the dead of night, you will follow
In the footsteps of many others who have come before
I will show you, well, the altar
Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair
Your beauty bestowed upon my lair
I've loved you before, in other lives
But you've never meant as much to me
Never meant as much to me as now
In this night of sacrifice
Where blood is spilt that will never spill again
But in your linen robes, we want you now
We want you now
You could never ask for more than that
You are my offering
Your soul transcends the centuries of pain
Your misery in life is your ecstasy in-
Come fulfil the prophecy
With our demons of debauchery
This madness will never cease
