Let her go in peace
Now it's the end
Let her go in peace
Now is the time
Now is the hour
Ours is the magic
Now it's the end
Let her go in peace
Fivefold kiss
Get on your knees
Now is the time
Now is the hour
Ours is the magic
Ours is the power
Now it's the end
Let her go in peace
The candles off
The spirits in
These lyrics are from the song "Chant" by Rotten Daisies. The song is quite short and repetitive but has an eerie and unsettling feeling to it. The lyrics suggest that something is coming to an end, perhaps a ritual or ceremony, and the singer is urging everyone to let it go peacefully. The repetition of the words "now it's the end, let her go in peace" suggest that whatever was happening has been concluded and it is time to move on. The fivefold kiss and the reference to getting on your knees could suggest that this was some sort of pagan or witchcraft ceremony, as these actions are often used in ritualistic practices.
The second half of the song is a repetition of the phrase "now is the time, now is the hour, ours is the magic, ours is the power." This could indicate that whatever was happening was working towards a particular outcome or goal, and that the participants in the ritual hold some sort of power or magic. The final line "the candles off, the spirits in" gives a sense of finality, as the candles being extinguished suggests the end of the ceremony, and the spirits being "in" could mean that they have been successfully invoked or channeled in some way.
Overall, the lyrics to "Chant" by Rotten Daisies are cryptic and mysterious, leaving the interpretation up to the listener. The repeated phrases and references to ritualistic actions give a sense of unease and suggest that something dark or otherworldly is at play.

This totally feels like it was filmed in the 90’s. I still feel like I might have seen this on MTV when I was like 4 to 7 years old.

La estética y la letra me recuerdan a la película The Craft (Jóvenes Brujas). Excelente
