Prelude #1/Black Annis
When Annis built this cage
I saw the blueprint on the table
But I was too young to run
She lured me from my play
To her clandestine domain
To tend her illicit garden
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
And from her veil of black
With all the mirrors at her back
She called me into her guarded empire
I treaded soft and lightly
Fear trembling so slightly
Snows in my bones I dream of the white sea
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
When Annis roared and jeered
I knew that no one leaves from here
Her fervid anger don't spare anything
In the frenzy of my senses
She confiscated my defenses
With all the forces of night
When Annis built this cage
I saw the blueprint on the table
But I was too young to run
She lured me from my play
To her clandestine domain
To tend her illicit garden
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
Black, black soul
I saw the blueprint on the table
But I was too young to run
She lured me from my play
To her clandestine domain
To tend her illicit garden
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
And from her veil of black
With all the mirrors at her back
She called me into her guarded empire
I treaded soft and lightly
Fear trembling so slightly
Snows in my bones I dream of the white sea
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
When Annis roared and jeered
I knew that no one leaves from here
Her fervid anger don't spare anything
In the frenzy of my senses
She confiscated my defenses
With all the forces of night
When Annis built this cage
I saw the blueprint on the table
But I was too young to run
She lured me from my play
To her clandestine domain
To tend her illicit garden
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
Black, black soul
And Annis takes her toll
Child of sin
Black Annis wins again
Black, black soul
