Open your eyes, my child
For there is no light to blind your sight
Survey the world that lay before you
A world devoid of the divine

Paint your own fate
For you are the God
And the night awaits

I'm a sinner and it hurts so good
I'm the killer of my angelhood
I stand my ground and I wear the crown
Of a sinner falling further down

Sweetest sensations of decadence
My heart beats without repentance 

Scream to the sky that we are the God
And this is our fucking paradise

I'm a sinner and it hurts so good
I'm the killer of my angelhood
I stand my ground and I wear the crown
Of a sinner falling further down

Watch me fall further down

Sinner

The last and only completed movement of my composition dedicated to the Pagan wheel of the year, Samhain saw its debut performance on October 18th, 2015. The piano and vocal performance is done by the premiere singer, Laurel Sanders, who resurrected this composition from several years on the shelf. 

Samhain sun is falling
The Hallows' Eve is approaching
Lay the lanterns glowing
And sing the spirits' calling

The harvest and waiting rest
Blessed be

Silver twilight veil
Through which the soul may sail
Mother Moonlight wails
Her lover's heart has failed

Upon His death, with His last breath,
"Blessed be."

Winter brings rebirth
The newborn Sun shall awaken
Death may bring us hurt
But life will not be forsaken

Merry meet
And merry part
And merry meet again

Blessed be

Samhain

GAIA

Inspired by the VVitch and fueled by childhood nostalgia....aaaand in memory of James Horner, here is our cover of "Come, Little Children" from Hocus Pocus! 

Lyrics: 



    Come little children, I’ll take thee away
    into a land of Enchantment,
    Come little children, the time’s come to play
    here in my garden of magic.

    Follow sweet children, I’ll show thee the way
    through all the pain and the Sorrows.
    Weep not poor children, for life is this way
    Murdering beauty and Passions.

    Hush now dear children, it must be this way
    too weary of life and Deceptions,
    Rest now my children, for soon we’ll away
    into the calm and the Quiet.

    Come little children, I’ll take thee away
    into a land of Enchantment,
    Come little children, the time’s come to play
    here in my garden of Shadows.

Come, Little Children
