Ode to Bathory
Razakel Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am the blood countess welcome to my castle of death victims remain uncounted suck(?) the blood till there was nothing left. I will gladly take all your innocent daughters turn them into my servants, exploit them and make'em indulge into my dirty perversions. I'm always in control I'm very diabolic there's no escaping these atrocities, catastrophes, tragedies. Bring an army there's no way your stopping me. I'm like royalty everything always goes goes my way. What a sight to see all my victims on their knees as they weep and pray. I cut and slice at their veins. They hang from hooks and chains lay beneath as I bathe in the blood cuz it makes me young oh yes I'm vain. Idolize, despise yet (?) can't deny that I'm recognized the real scream queen is here to terrorize your worthless life.

As your emotions your senses they slip away you can feel your death is coming no payer can save. You Writhe in agony for hours on end ironic the death has become your only true best friend.

This is my ode to bathory blood you know it's what you need suffering yet your still alive. You see the world move but your dead inside. This is my ode to bathory sodomy you know it's what you need. Can't move it's almost like your paralyzed. Then you know your down to the night.

Young virgin blood touches my skin (x3) erase these years, erase these sins.

Girls battered dying slowly dreams shattered blood splattered brain matter body parts scattered my blood lust obsession finally meets an end. They barged in discovered my victims my perfect prison. This unforgivable sin can't be taken back no way it's too late it looks like the tables have turned I'm the one they point to, I'm the one they blame. Let me explain when I see blood flow I go insane it triggers my brain takes my years away I feed on my prey blood keeps me sub stained. Everybody's afraid that if they don't punish me I'll just keep abusing my power so they break up the walls and leave me alone and lock me up in my own tower. Abrasions lasterations all of my wounds are self inflicted. I'll be labeled the most prolyphic, vicious, sickest, wicked sadistic.

As my emotions my senses they slip away I can feel my death is coming no prayer can save. I writhe in agony for hours on end, Ironic the death has become my only true best friend.

This is my ode to bathory, blood I know it's what I need. Suffering yet I'm still alive, I see the world move but I'm dead inside. This is my ode to bathory sodomy I know it's what I need. Can't move it's almost like I'm paralyzed. Then I know I'm down to the night.

Down to the night. Can't move can't breath can't speak can't see. I'm down to the night.

This is my ode to bathory blood I know it's what I need. Suffering yet I'm still alive, I see the world move but I'm dead inside. This is my ode to bathory sodomy I know it's what I need. Can't move it's almost like I'm paralyzed. Then I know I'm down to the night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Ode to Bathory" by Razakel are a chilling portrayal of the infamous Countess Elizabeth Bathory, known for her gruesome murders and rumored blood rituals. The song is from the perspective of Bathory herself, as she boasts about her power and control over her victims, particularly young girls whom she turns into her servants and indulges in perverse acts with. She describes herself as diabolic and unstoppable, cutting and slicing at her victims' veins, hanging them from hooks and chains, and bathing in their blood to maintain her youth.

However, the song takes a darker turn towards the end as Bathory's victims are discovered, and she is left alone in her tower, haunted by her own actions and self-inflicted wounds. The lyrics suggest that Bathory's obsession with blood and power was ultimately her own undoing, driving her to madness and death. Throughout the song, there is a sense of dread and horror, and the repeated refrain of "down to the night" reinforces the idea of a descent into darkness and chaos.

Overall, Razakel's "Ode to Bathory" is a powerful and disturbing exploration of one of history's most notorious figures, emphasizing the brutality of her crimes and the toll they took on her psyche.
