Song lyrics

Seven deadly sins
Seven ways to win
Seven holy paths to hell
And your trip begins

Seven downward slopes
Seven bloodied hopes
Seven are your burning fires
Seven your desires....

I am he the bornless one
The fallen angel watching you
Babylon, the scarlet whore
I'll infiltrate your gratitude
Don't you dare to save your son
Kill him now and save the young ones
Be the mother of a birth strangled babe
Be the devils own, Lucifer's my name

Moonchild – hear the mandrake scream
Moonchild – open the seventh seal
Moonchild – You'll be mine soon child
Moonchild – take my hand tonight

I count the heads of those unborn
The accursed ones I'll find them all
And if you die by your own hand
As a suicide you shall be damned
And if you try to save your soul
I will torment you – you shall not grow old
With every second and passing breath
You'll be so alone your soul will bleed to death

The twins they are exhausted, seven is this night
Gemini is rising as the red lips kiss to bite
Seven angels seven demons battle for his soul
When Gabriel lies sleeping, this child was born to die

One more dies one more lives
One baby cries one mother grieves
For all the sins you will commit
You'll beg forgiveness and none I'll give
A web of fear shall be your coat
To clothe you in the night
A lucky escape for you young man
But I'll see you damned in endless night



Moonchild

Seven deadly sins,
Seven ways to win,
Seven holy paths to hell.
And your trip begins,
Seven downward slopes,
Seven bloodied hopes,
Seven are you burning fires,
Seven your desires...

I am he, the bornless one.
The fallen angel, watching you,
Babylon, the scarlet whore,
I'll infiltrate your gratitude,
Don't you dare to save your son?
Kill him now and save the young ones,
Be the mother of birth strangled babe,
Be the devils own, Lucifer's my name.
Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream,
Moonchild - Open the seventh seal

I count the heads of those unborn,
The accursed ones, I'll find them all.
If you die by your own hand,
As a suicide, you shall be damned.
And if you try to save your soul,
I will torment you - you shall not grow old.
With every second and passing breath,
You'll be so alone, your soul will bleed to death.
Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream,
Moonchild - open the seventh seal.
Moonchild - you'll be mine soon, child.
Moonchild - take my hand tonight.

The twins, they are exhausted, seven is this night.
Gemini is rising as the red lips kiss to bite.
Seven angels, seven demons battle for his soul,
When Gabriel lies sleeping, this child was born to die.

One more dies, one more lives,
One baby cries, one mother grieves,
For all the sins, you will commit,
You'll beg forgiveness, and none I'll give.
A web of fear shall be your coat,
To clothe you in the night.
A lucky escape for you, young man,
But I'll see, you damned in endless night.
Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream,
Moonchild - open the seventh seal.
Moonchild - you'll be mine soon, child.
Moonchild - take my hand tonight.
