Zyrah Lyrics by The Widow’s Bane

Don’t Be Afraid, It’s Only Death

2013

Once upon a long time ago
There was a gypsy queen with skin like snow
Fair and smooth, cold for sure
Venus never had nothin' on her
My god, she was a deadly dame
Men traded souls just to hear her name
And when they did
A world of flame engulfed their hearts and the devil sang:
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Zyrah!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Zyrah!
Oh-ah haha!
There was a time I couldn't see at all
'Till I saw that gypsy's crystal ball
Then I saw that the mirror on her wall
Was the only the weapon that could make her fall
I took it in hand and climbed her stairs
In the dark she called out
"Who's there?"
She fell in love just like the rest
Now she clutches that mirror to her breast
She talks in tongues while her flesh decays
Hasn't left that room in days!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Zyrah!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Zyrah!
Oh-ah haha!
Eyes made of a man's wet dreams
Her lips were two sharp guillotines
Lips slick with kerosene
Through sparks!
Oh, eyes made of a man's wet dreams
Her lips were two sharp guillotines
Lips slick with kerosene
Through sparks!
Every time she screamed!
Ah-oh-ah-oh-ah
Ah-oh-ah-oh-ah
Ah-oh-ah-oh-ah
Ah-oh-ah-oh-ah
