Fires Burn Black
Warloghe Lyrics

The lyrics of Warloghe's song Fires Burn Black are rich with symbolism and evoke a dark and mystical imagery. The song seems to speak of a ritualistic and sacrificial setting, where the singers are singing praises to the cyclical moon and the horns: "Glorification of the cyclical moon, Five points to be a sign for the horns". The manifestation of the spherical flesh and the seven wounds are likely associated with sacrifices or offerings to some higher power, symbolized as the "radiance from the first and the last", which is "slaughtering everything and all". Despite the violent and terrifying imagery, the singers rejoice in their actions, claiming to have "wrought pain".

The second stanza introduces a new element, a "dream of a loathing glare". The gleam comes forth from two burning spheres, evoking a sense of power and destruction: "As torrents of abhorrence, the gleam swept through, As the purest of flames". The "conflagration of divinity in aeons/Was brought forth in a flame from the west", further emphasizing the grandeur and the ancient power of what is being invoked. Finally, the presence of a being with leather wings and blackened eyes, who inspires awe from the vast fires, adds an even darker and more supernatural element to the lyrics.

Overall, the lyrics of Fires Burn Black by Warloghe seem to describe a ritualistic invocation of some dark and powerful entity, where the singers offer sacrifices and bask in their cruel glory. The language used is rich with metaphors and symbols, so the exact nature of the entity being invoked and the setting of the ritual are left to the imagination of the listener.
