Mystic Prophecy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Relax and fall into my arms
With no fear
And you'll feel the mighty
Hatred I keep inside of me
You lick my wounds and now
You feel the pain
My dreams are dark and cold
I am the god of hate
Mystic prophecy
Black raven coming over you
Mystic prophecy
This is the sign for you and me
Mystic prophecy
The pain that I've been carrying
With me
For hundreds of years
Drink from my blood surrender
Your soul to me forever more
I am the sign you've been waiting fo
