In a darkness of the night a vampire cast her spell a full moon's hazy light the world returns to hell
In a gothic world of evil the undead walks the land the shadow of the devil the vampire takes your hand
Carmilla, marcilla, mircalla,... it's love at the first bite it's lust of a vampire a beautiful young karnstein... mircalla
In a night of the dead you can't escape the shadow of the vampire's head and you'll be undead
In a gothic world of evil the undead walks the land the shadow of the devil the vampire takes your hand
Carmilla, marcilla, mircalla,... it's love at the first bite it's lust of a vampire a beautiful young karnstein... mircalla

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Two Witches's song "Mircalla" describe the allure and destructive power of a vampire named Mircalla. The song paints a picture of a dark and gothic world, where the vampire's spell transforms the night into a hellish landscape. The full moon's "hazy light" adds to the eerie atmosphere, as the undead stroll through the land.

The name Mircalla is repeated throughout the chorus, emphasizing the character's importance in the song. The lyrics suggest that Mircalla's undead existence is not only a curse but also a form of seduction. The line "it's love at the first bite" suggests that the vampire's victims may be lured in by her beauty and charm, despite the terrifying consequences.

The final lines of the song suggest that once bitten by Mircalla, one cannot escape the "shadow of the vampire's head" and will be doomed to walk the land as one of the undead. The song captures the idea that, in the world of vampires, there is no returning to the land of the living.

Overall, "Mircalla" provides a haunting and seductive portrayal of the allure of the vampire, emphasizing the power of darkness and the destructive potential of desire.
