Call upon the ancient gods within your sacred magick circle
Raise your wand and speak your chants within the language long forgotten
Ancient gods will hear your prayer, they'll come to you upon your bidding
Speak to you and teach...Knowledge long forgot
And you bid them
They come upon your call
And you feel them
They fill the air with awe
And you see them
See them in the scrying stone
And you know them
Praise them in the ancient tongue
Tablet stone and ancient bones and sweet incense of cedar oil
Sing the songs from aged tomes and feel the melam coursing through you
Udug flee and gidim leave and Lahmu standing by you guarding
And the shedu come in close...to hold the wheaten line
And you bid them
They come upon your call
And you feel them
They fill the air with awe
And you see them
See them in the scrying stone
And you know them
Praise them in the ancient tongue
Ghosts receed as burning leaves smog in the air of herbal resin
Fires burn in candles casting orangy shadows dancing brightly
Shades draw near as trance goes clear and all the questions of the dead ones
And tell you things of death...and the world beyond the grave
And you bid them
They come upon your call
And you feel them
They fill the air with awe
And you see them
See them in the scrying stone
And you know them
Praise them in the ancient tongue

Ol' Ghost Jack
02:10
|
|||
Ol' Ghost Jack he's a man clad in red
Flannel his style the lumberjack stead
Some say his eyes give a Ghosty red glow
Go ask the demons, they'd know
Eyes like the devil and old leather boots
Soon as he sees you, you know you are spooked
Beard trim and proper, you'd think he's quite young
Something tells me that'd be wrong
Ol' Ghost Jack tell me what do you see?
Why are you there lookin' at me?
Starin' at me from above my bed
You've come snoopin' in my pad
Ol' Ghost Jack tell me what do you see?
Why are you there lookin' at me?
Starin' at me from above my bed
Why have you come for me?
Ol' Ghost Jack he's a man of the wood
The trees and the pumpkins plant them you should
Lichens be talkin' like people out here
Only when woodsmen are near
Some say he's a demon, some say he's a ghost
Some folk say an angel, or death you suppose?
Still others they think he's a fairy-land spook
Some folk just think he's a kook
Ol' Ghost Jack tell me what do you see?
Why are you there lookin' at me?
Starin' at me from above my bed
You've come snoopin' in my pad
Ol' Ghost Jack tell me what do you see?
Why are you there lookin' at me?
Starin' at me from above my bed
Why have you come for me?

Men in Black
02:00
|
|||
Over the mountains
and over the hills
those men in black
they give me the chills
From out in the dark
in Cadalac cars
They wallk with a gait
like some odd men of mars
They come
They ask such strange questions
they say such strange words
They act like they know not
the things of the Earth
I wonder at the place
from wince thye have come
They come in the night
and they give you a fright
The knock at the door
give you chills to your core
Just chuck at the a bit of
herb solar oil
Watch as it releases
their mortal coil
I've heard
Over the mountains
and over the hills
those men in black
they give me the chills
From out in the dark
in Cadalac cars
They wallk with a gait
like some odd men of mars
They come

Moon Mountain
02:28
|
|||
The mighty Moon is out
Where the mountains end
The devil-beast is watching
from forests in the night
Cat’s eyes
Watchin’ from the dark
Grow to devour the moon
The man in the moon is angry
Your words offend
He cares not for without
He knows you from within
Daughter’s
Secret scarab sign
Hidden knowledge of the heart
The mighty Moon is out
Where the mountains end
The devil-beast is watching
from forests in the night
Cat’s eyes
Watchin’ from the dark
Grow to devour the moon
Flaming sword in hand
Circlet on the crown
Spirits silent whispers in
the edge of the mind
Ghost lies
Telling witch’s tales
o’ the demon, the road, and the moon

Old Bones
02:15
|
|||
Silver hair, spider webs,
Knot and twist upon my head.
Yesterday fades away.
Rose thorns gleam with drops of red.
Tears mark all the paths that i roam.
Tears will cut strange runes into my bones.
O my bones. my old bones.
Mirror crack, rippled lake,
Etch new lines upon my face.
Mirror shard, iron hard,
Leave red streams all in my wake.
Tears mark all the paths that i roam.
Tears will cut strange runes into my bones.
O my bones. my old bones.
Draw the knife, shine the blade.
I walk on fields of my own make.
Kiss of briar, tongue of fire.
All i give the worm shall take.
Tears mark all the paths that i roam.
Tears will cut strange runes into my bones.
O my bones. my old bones.

Losing You
03:04
|
|||
I do not know what to do
And I feel like I’m losing you
And I don’t know how to cope
And I feel like I’m losing hope
And I feel alone all the time
And I feel broken inside
I am all alone
And I feel like I'm falling apart
And I feel like I'm losing my heart
I know what we had was bad
But then why does this make me so sad?
I do not know what to do
And I feel like I’m losing you
And I don’t know how to cope
And I feel like I’m losing hope
And I feel alone all the time
And I feel broken inside
I am all alone
And my mind is shattered inside
And my heart is wanting to hide
And I know this feeling is wrong
So that's why I'm singin' this song
I do not know what to do
And I feel like I’m losing you
And I don’t know how to cope
And I feel like I’m losing hope
And I feel alone all the time
And I feel broken inside
I am all alone

Queer Beat

Queer Beat – V~Nessy
When the wind blows
When the tree goes
When the dogs get in a fight
The song beatin'
The disc screachin'
Did you hear if they bite?
We are here and
We are queer and
We are dancing tonight
I don't know what
you have found
Why you staring
at the ground
Come on out and
move your feet
Feel the rhythm
of the beat
With the people
in the crowd
Cheerin' groovin'
to the sound
