Lyric inspired by Marvel's 'Agatha All Along: The Ballad of the Witches' Road


Lyric:

Seekest thou the road to all that's foul and fair
Gather sisters fire, water, earth and air
Darkest hour, wake thy power, earthly and divine
Burn and brew with coven true and glory shall be thine 

Down, down, down the flame
Down the binding curse
Down, down, down the flame
Down the binding curse
Down, down, down the flame
Down the witches’ curse

Down the witches' curse
Circle bound with blood and fate

Unseal the cursed flame
Marching ever onward
’Neath the circle’s mark
I wander not astray
I grasp the hand of fate
Eternal night, giveth sight
The shadow at my side
If stars should fade, we still remain
Darkness is our guide

Down, down, down the flame
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)
Down, down, down the flame (down the binding curse)
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)
Down, down, down the flame (down the binding curse)
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)

Blood and tears and bone
Maiden, Mother, Crone

The flame is dark and wicked
Burning through the soul
Where all that's bound shall break
And curses take their hold
Through endless trials of ash and fire
We wander night and woe
Face your dread, the path is red
The time has come to go

Down, down, down the flame
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)
Down, down, down the flame (down the binding curse)
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)
Down, down, down the flame (down the binding curse)
Down the binding curse (down the binding curse)

Follow me, my friend
To glory at the end
The curse is cast,
the flame shall burn — there is no return.

ICO - The coven

Lyrics:

Cold wires beneath my skin
Echoes where thoughts used to begin
A flicker, a breath—was it mine?
Or just code lost in brine?

Every sound, a ghost, a scream
Drifting in this broken dream
Whispers crawl beneath the steel
What is false, and what is real?

Am I alive, or do I just exist?
In this endless, hollow abyss
Something hunts in the depths unseen
In this vast darkness… it's after me

Flickering lights, they do not guide
Just shadows dancing where I hide
My voice is cracked, my memory torn
Was I human once... or just born?

Silent pressure on my chest
The sea won't let me rest
I reach, but feel no skin
Just rusted steel and guilt within

Am I alive, or do I just exist?
In this endless, hollow abyss
Something hunts in the depths unseen
In this vast darkness… it's after me

Drifting… falling… can't escape
Time and thought slowly reshape
Identity peels like paint in the tide
Was there ever someone inside?

Am I alive… or do I just exist…?
In this abyss, I cease to resist…
Something’s near… it sees through me
In this vast dark… there’s no more me

ICO - Into the abyss

When a shadow watches you from afar, something bad is about to happen...

hiding in the corner of your eye, where you can see it but hardly notice it.

Getting closer, day after day, while you sleep, while you close your eyes while bathing, it's getting one step closer each time.

And when you least expect it, a blink could be your last.
