The Vision Bleak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tied by a promise to the infernal one
A pact was to be signed in blood
to renounce the holy spirit and god
At a crossroad a circle was drawn
Into the magic of the burning pentagram
Summoning th fiery prince of hell
The smell of sulphur filled the night
Seven demons appared in unlight
They handed him the pact in bliss
and descented back into the black abyss

Disclaimer of the sacrosanct
Granted he was with youth
Thirty years of joy, wisdom and truth
He induged in the fleshy delight
A witchking he became of the greatest height
When the time came for the fallen son
He went to hell with the infernal one
For a pact was signed in blood
to blaspheme the holy spirit and god

The Vision Bleak's song "Hexenmeister" is about an individual who makes a deal with the devil, renouncing God and the holy spirit in exchange for youth, power, and pleasure. The lyrics describe the process of making the pact at a crossroads, drawing a circle and summoning the fiery prince of hell. Seven demons appear and hand him the pact to sign, after which he indulges in the pleasures of the flesh and becomes a witch king of the greatest height. However, when the time comes for him to go to hell with the infernal one, he must pay the price for blasphemy.
The lyrics convey a sense of darkness, danger, and temptation, as the singer is lured by the promise of power and pleasure, but ultimately pays the price for his transgression. The use of occult imagery such as the burning pentagram, the necromantic spell, and the seven demons adds to the sinister atmosphere of the song. The repetition of the words Faustus, Spiritus, Rector, Strigarum, Nekromant and Hexenmeister reinforces the idea of the singer's transformation into a powerful sorcerer and his descent into darkness.
Line by Line Meaning
Heretic, sorcerer, fallen son
Outcast, magician, prodigal offspring
Tied by a promise to the infernal one
Bound by a vow to the devil
A pact was to be signed in blood
An agreement to be made in sacrificial blood
to renounce the holy spirit and god
To abandon belief in the divine and reject God
At a crossroad a circle was drawn
In a symbolic location, a ring was made
Into the magic of the burning pentagram
In the midst of mystical flames shaped like a five-pointed star
Summoning th fiery prince of hell
Invoking the fiery ruler of the underworld
Conjured by an old necromantic spell
Called forth by an ancient incantation of the dead
The smell of sulphur filled the night
The odor of brimstone permeated the darkness
Seven demons appared in unlight
Seven evil spirits manifested in utter darkness
They handed him the pact in bliss
They presented him the agreement with joy
and descented back into the black abyss
And returned to the dark depths

Disclaimer of the sacrosanct
Renunciation of the sacred
Granted he was with youth
Given that he was in his prime
Thirty years of joy, wisdom and truth
Three decades filled with happiness, knowledge, and veracity
He induged in the fleshy delight
He indulged in physical pleasure
A witchking he became of the greatest height
He ascended to the rank of the most powerful witch king
When the time came for the fallen son
When the hour of death arrived for the wayward child
He went to hell with the infernal one
He descended to the underworld with the devil
For a pact was signed in blood
Because an agreement had been made in sacrificial blood
to blaspheme the holy spirit and god
To utter sacrilegious words against the divine and God
