lyrics

Location: Carpathian woods

Characters:
Outcast, criminal
Merchant
Wife of merchant - a Witch
Chief of guards
The Darkness - Death
Narrator

Opening scene. Someone is sitting alone at campfire in middle of deep woods.

Narrator:
Fellow traveller step out from the shadows
Come and sit by me around the fire
Cold night is falling and evil spirits are moving
Come here and hear my story
Story of betrayal and living thru death
It was night like this decades ago…


Chapter I - Like Moth to a Flame

Narrator:
When the sun is low and night falls
Like rats the lowest ones crawl
Out from their hideouts and lairs
They seek for prey, a catch for this night

Shadows raise and grow
Sun hanging so low

Daylight is gone and it's time
Decadence calls for decadence
Stragglers of the evening glow
Those who come alive
Divine - alive!

Outcast steps out from his hideout
Past an alley he walks

A Figure from the darkness
Calling his name…
Shadows raise and grow
Sun hanging, oh so low

Chief of guards:
I do not seek for any harm
No reason to rise your arms
I'm here with and offer
With the purest of intentions

Narrator:
Grip tight on his dagger
Waiting for he's attacker
Our outcast walks deeper in to the alley dark
To meet this strange nark

Chief of guards:
No need for alert
I need a help from man like you
You know the merchant
And know his wealth too

A Figure from the darkness
Calling his name…
Shadows raise and grow
Sun hanging, oh so low

Beautiful jewels own his bride
Steal and bring those to me
Next night house will be unguarded
No one on your way
Trust my words
And you shall be rewarded
