The Call Of The Banshee
The Vision Bleak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Invisible enchantress
Sorceress of the Sidhe
At the nightly crossroads she roams
Only seen by few
whose death she will foresee
who fear her vatic song
Her dreaded voice – their doom...
Are you hearing the call?
Poisoning the night
Are you hearing her cry?
Leaving you in fright
Pail-haired ghostly hag of the mist
singing with the night owls
by desolation kissed
She-Bane of the woodlands and mounts
in solitude she hums
through the haze her voice resounds
Are you hearing the call?
Poisoning the night
Are you hearing her cry?
Leaving you in fright
The Vision Bleak's song, The Call of the Banshee, is a hauntingly beautiful tune that speaks of a mysterious being - a sorceress of the Sidhe, a pail-haired ghostly hag of the mist who haunts the hillside. She moves through the night unseen by many, except for those whose death she will foresee. She wanders through the crossroads of the night and roams amidst the wretched souls in gloom who fear her vatic song. Her dreaded voice spells doom for those who hear it, and few can resist her call.
This eerie and eerie story is conveyed through the song's lyrics. The melody is both haunting and soothing, with a steady mid-tempo pace that adds to the overall sense of foreboding. The lyrics themselves speak of the mystery and the dread of the banshee, the mythological creature that is said to herald the death of a loved one. The song paints a picture of an evil, otherworldly being that lures people to their deaths with her chilling voice.
"The Call of the Banshee" is a prime example of The Vision Bleak's masterful storytelling through their music. The song creates an atmosphere of haunting beauty that encapsulates the listener and takes us on a journey through the unknown. The lyrics and melody work together to convey the story of the sorceress and her seductive call.

The Banshee hums while alone, lost in her thoughts
through the haze her voice resounds
Her voice echoes through the mist, piercing the silence
