Lyrics:
V1
Gravity swallows light
In the darkness, they will come
You might put up a fight
Fear can make you feel numb
V2
Flying past in the moonlight
Red hair long and streaming
Lamenting songs in the night
Spirits appear while you are dreaming
Chorus
Rising from the mound
Death is close, lurking near
Mournful like no other sound
Predictions filled with fear
Keening women wail at night
Bulging red eyes, agony
Sure to cause you a fright
It's the cry of the banshee
V3
There's no place that you can hide
They know just where to look
All the tears that you have cried
For those caught by their hooks
Chorus
Rising from the mound
Death is close, lurking near
Mournful like no other sound
Predictions filled with fear
Keening women wail at night
Bulging red eyes, agony
Sure to cause you a fright
It's the cry of the banshee
Chorus
Rising from the mound
Death is close, lurking near
Mournful like no other sound
Predictions filled with fear
Keening women wail at night
Bulging red eyes, agony
Sure to cause you a fright
It's the cry of the banshee
