Lyrics[edit | edit source]
samhain, samhain, through this harvest, tried night
all hallow's eve
samhain, samhain, under mask I am stars
love, lie with thee, all hallow's eve
samhain, samhain, take my hand, vex moonlight
midheaven wanes, all hallow's eve
black turns forever, turns to sleep
black turns confessor, turns to reap
hey! come call, autumnus
start the wheels of helios
strike up the lantern
singe forth darkest peace
we'll follow under
samhain, samhain, awaken spirits in thy breath
love, lie with thee
samhain, samhain, gifting apples that I'd spoilt
to hallowmass
love, lie with thee
black turns forever, turns to sleep
black turns confessor, turns to reap
hey! come call, autumnus
start the wheels of helios
strike up the lantern
black turns forever, turns to sleep
black turns confessor, turns to reap
black turns sinless, turns to seed
black turns protectress, turns to reap
hey! come call autumnus
