The Sattari. Eve's Soldiers.

 


(A lone voice whispers)


Deep in Blackwood Forest 

At the third stroke of midnight 


If you're brave enough and want to see 


A rare sight 


To see a silver ritual chalice raised 

As dirty country music plays       


See Masters of Temple 

Stand in hot circles of fire 


As people in Eyes Wide Shut masks 


Watch 

As they sweat and perspire


The summoning ritual 

From The 7th Seal 

Of the biblical maiden 


Who helped usher in 

The Ultimate Sin


From The Great In-Between


Invoked 

To make all kneel     

As she is seen                        


Do want to hear the golden bell ring 


See reckless flames dance 

Like two twin lovers  


Locked in romance         

Into the immortal night     


Be bound in bondage 

To Eve


And that circle in Blackwood 

When found  

Without fight


Just meditate     

Visualize a dark forest 


And imagine yourself there 

As your fate 


And 

In your holy dreams 


When it's dark and late

I'll send The Legendary Sattari 


With a gentle call and whistle 

Into the light 


Of 

Dabis animam Evam in aeternum


To bring you 

To your last-ever party 


In Blackwood Forest 

Tonight
