Festival of Devotion - Cultes des Ghoules



The moon shines in its prime

It's the night of infernal wonder

I shall go to the forbidden shrine

Evected in the haunted wood out yonder



Leper monks savour menstrual blood

Succubus seduce a young, healthy lad

Naked bodies sway in the lustful stream

Cold, evil eyes in the dark fiercely gleam



Bleached bones in shallow graves

cry out for blood



My baby's heart feels the evil though cannot see

The dark, horned silhouette beckons to me

In the fumes of herbs phantoms appear at will

The wood enchanted is eerily silent and still

My baby's heartbeat suddenly quickens

With joy and terror the midnight air thickens



Lambs bared their fangs

Shrieks turned to sweetes sigh

A drugged virgin on the altar bangs

The clatter of hooves is nigh



Leper monks savour menstrual blood

Succubus seduce a young, healthy lad

Naked bodies sway in the lustful stream

Cold, evil eyes in the dark fiercely gleam
