Circle of Witches (lyrics)

The foul smell of evil hangs over the moores
Where in a lonely hut three witches dwell
Repelling creatures, ageless, feared and fitted
With powers from the depths of Hell
Once a noble man, a baron brother of the king himself
Visited the wtiches on a dark, dark night
He asked assist to gain the throne
He sold his soul to win a fight

The days getting short, and the nights getting colder
Winter has come, the sun is too weak
The forces of night are now growing stronger
Searching for souls of men blind with greed
Three witches stand in a circle of evil
Tongues speaking words old and unknown
Call for a demon to serve in their dark spell
Fulfill what they owe to get what men own

I'll be king, I want the power, I will change my fate
Magic's on my side forever, so the witches say
Time is right to gain the throne, I'll take my brother down
I'll be king to rule the land, yes I'll take the crown

I've lost my soul, I've lost control, To the circle of witches
My life is black, There's no way back, From the circle of witches
Circle of witches, Circle of witches, Circle of witches - Never again

Lie in wait, prepared to fight, soon the king must come
Allied with the darkest powers, murder will be done
Loyal soldiers stand for battle, blinded are their eyes
Witchcraft takes away their sight, as we take their lives

I've lost my soul, I've lost control, To the circle of witches
My life is black, There's no way back, From the circle of witches
Circle of witches, Circle of witches, Circle of witches - Never again

I look at myself, a mirror of darkness
My mind is drowned, a dark flood of hate
I owe too much to the powers of evil
I know I'm damned, sealed is my fate

For the gloom of gold and glory, I have sold my soul
Blackened are the sunny days, the dark side gains control
Hell awaits as nightmares haunt me, demons in my head
Satan waits with patient joy, he'll greet me when I'm dead

I've lost my soul, I've lost control, To the circle of witches
My life is black, There's no way back, From the circle of witches
Circle of witches, Circle of witches, Circle of witches - Never again
