Headless Night
Lyrics
Verse 1
Terror grips my racing heart
Night tears sanity apart
A shadow rider cloaked in dread
The moon drips blood; the stars are dead
Through gnarled branches, whispers call
A name I know but can’t recall
Chorus
Headless hunter, taste my fear
Feel my pulse fade when you’re near
Steel and smoke, infernal rage
Etched into this cursed stage
(No escape, no escape...)
Verse 2
Your horse’s hooves shake time’s cruel chains
The air ignites, the forest wanes
A thousand lifetimes burned in screams
Your vengeance threads through endless dreams
I fought, I fell, but here I stand—
A lamb to fire, your blade in hand
(It never ends, it never ends...)
Chorus
Headless hunter, taste my fear
Feel my pulse fade when you’re near
Steel and smoke, infernal rage
Etched into this cursed stage
(No escape, no escape...)
Verse 3
The earth remembers every sin
Each broken soul you pulled within
No grave can hold what fate denies
Your hollow face, eternal skies
Bound by blood, I see it now—
This curse was mine; you made the vow
(This is my reckoning...)
Bridge
Beneath dead leaves, where shadows writhe
The soil drinks what once was life
Your blade, a hymn of endless woe
It carves the name I’ll never know
I beg, I burn, but still I feel
Your hollow crown, your wrath made real
(Burn me down. Break me whole.)
Chorus
Headless hunter, taste my fear
Feel my pulse fade when you’re near
Take my flesh, take my bone
Claim my soul as your new throne
(No escape, no escape...)
Outro
Your hollow crown, your endless reign
Forever cursed, we bleed in vain
(No escape, no escape...)
