Desert Queen
In the witching hour
Comes a rider in black – cold through and through
Enslaves by desire
Just like a drug, she's consuming you slow
You can't love like you used to before
And you can't find trust in nothing else anymore
Those pale lips, bourbon-soaked kiss
She's the den of your sins – the slit of a wrist
"I was forged by fire
A daughter of the canyon lands
Hell's spawn of liars
Raised by the dead in the sun-scorched desert sand"
Heed the killer of hearts
Face the angel in black where the desert starts
Hear her ravenous tune
A call to the wild in the white light of the moon
Spawned out of the dark
Under blood-red skies below falling stars
Fall onto your knees
Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen
Time stops, turns to reverse
A thousand years passed, haven't you heard?
When a red moon rises over barren terrains
The black-backed jackal howls; calling her name
"For I am the sinister savior
Commander in his Lucifer's reign
The new world creator
Here to see to, blood will fall like rain"
Heed the killer of hearts
Face the angel in black where the desert starts
Hear her ravenous tune
A call to the wild in the white light of the moon
Spawned out of the dark
Under blood-red skies below falling stars
Fall onto your knees
Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts
Face the angel in black where the desert starts
Hear her ravenous tune
A call to the wild in the white light of the moon
Spawned out of the dark
Under blood-red skies below falling stars
Fall onto your knees
Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen
In the dead of the night (In the dead of the night)
Under blood-red skies (Under blood-red skies)
Fall to your knees (Fall to your knees)
Before the crimson desert queen
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts
The killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts (In the dead of the night)
Heed the killer of hearts (Under blood-red skies)
Heed the killer of hearts (Fall to your knees)
(Before the crimson desert queen) The killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts (In the dead of the night)
Heed the killer of hearts (Under blood-red skies)
Heed the killer of hearts (Fall to your knees)
Before the crimson desert queen
Comes a rider in black – cold through and through
Enslaves by desire
Just like a drug, she's consuming you slow
You can't love like you used to before
And you can't find trust in nothing else anymore
Those pale lips, bourbon-soaked kiss
She's the den of your sins – the slit of a wrist
"I was forged by fire
A daughter of the canyon lands
Hell's spawn of liars
Raised by the dead in the sun-scorched desert sand"
Heed the killer of hearts
Face the angel in black where the desert starts
Hear her ravenous tune
A call to the wild in the white light of the moon
Spawned out of the dark
Under blood-red skies below falling stars
Fall onto your knees
Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen

Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts

Surrender your soul to the crimson desert queen
In the dead of the night (In the dead of the night)
Under blood-red skies (Under blood-red skies)
Fall to your knees (Fall to your knees)
Before the crimson desert queen
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts
The killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts (In the dead of the night)
Heed the killer of hearts (Under blood-red skies)
Heed the killer of hearts (Fall to your knees)
(Before the crimson desert queen) The killer of hearts
Heed the killer of hearts (In the dead of the night)
Heed the killer of hearts (Under blood-red skies)
Heed the killer of hearts (Fall to your knees)
Before the crimson desert queen
