Awakening a goddess in the dark
On a stake she’s been hanging like a doll
Tried to reach for the underworld
Had to pass through the seven gates of hell
Naked, lost, and deprived of all
All the power that she had lost
Dear ancient god, reveal your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient one, I see your home
At the gates of Babylon
Sent by Lord Enki to find, the goddess Ishtar, and bring her back to life
The tale of death and rebirth will become,
the walls of kings and the goddess that she was
Naked, lost and deprived of all
All the power that she had lost
Dear ancient god, reveal your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient one, I see your home
At the gates of Babylon
(Ishtar to Erishkigal)
Dear sister what have I done to deserve thy anger?
I passed through the seven gates, now all I had is yours
The underworld that you rule, I became a victim of
the messenger from another time has brought me home
Dear ancient god, reveal your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient one, I see your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient god, reveal your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient one, I see your home
At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient God release your soul,
at the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient one, I see your home
At the gates of Babylon

Volbeat - For Evigt ft. Johan Olsen
Volbeat
Memory, your lamp light is burning holesRecover the damage, bring it all home
Follow the bliss just like Summer song
Please stay there forever, I'll try to remember
Come home
Memory, you gave me another note
A voice that is endless, bring it all home
Oh what it is feels like a Summer song
I'll stay here forever, her face I remember
Johan Olsen
For evigt, måske for evigtSkal vi sammen, samme vej
Og når i morgen får øjne, og natten hviler sig
Skal vi for evigt måske samme vej
Volbeat
Happiness, I'm sorry you've been on holdThe doors will be open, bring it all home
Cause what it is, feels like a Summer song
I'll stay here forever now that I remember
Johan Olsen
For evigt, måske for evigtSkal vi sammen, samme vej
Og når i morgen får øjne, og natten hviler sig
Skal vi for evigt måske samme vej
Volbeat
For all these symbols don't open our eyesWe'll close them instead, leave the messenger behind
But one day we will know...
Johan Olsen
For evigt, måske for evigtSkal vi sammen, samme vej
Og når i morgen får øjne, og natten hviler sig
Skal vi for evigt måske for evigt
For evigt, måske for evigt
Skal vi sammen, samme vej
Og når i morgen får øjne, og natten hviler sig
Skal vi for evigt måske samme vej
[Johan Olsen:]
Skal vi for evigt måske samme vej
Skal vi for evigt måske samme vej
Volbeat - Marie Laveau
Dear Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau
I’m on my knees, I’m beggin’ you
Awake the fallen one in me
Thy power above all I hail
The white rom on your grave I brought
Together with cigars and gold
I’ll find you at the river’s end
As the followers enter your realm
Sing, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tone
Speak, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tongue
Queen of New Orleans
Mother of the coven
Sing, voodoo Marie
You’ve been called out again
Concerned about the soul I hold
In my heart I know he’s stubborn too
Awake the fallen father please
Thy power above all I hail
Sing, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tone
Speak, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tongue
Queen of New Orleans
Mother of the coven
Sing, voodoo Marie
You’ve been called out again
How silent is the lonely one?
What do we see, what do we know?
Marie Laveau, I’m full of hope
Let me speak until forever more
I’m on my knees, I’m beggin’ you
Awake the fallen one in me
Thy power above all I hail
The white rom on your grave I brought
Together with cigars and gold
I’ll find you at the river’s end
As the followers enter your realm
Sing, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tone
Speak, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tongue
Queen of New Orleans
Mother of the coven
Sing, voodoo Marie
You’ve been called out again
Concerned about the soul I hold
In my heart I know he’s stubborn too
Awake the fallen father please
Thy power above all I hail
Sing, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tone
Speak, voodoo Marie, let me hear thy tongue
Queen of New Orleans
Mother of the coven
Sing, voodoo Marie
You’ve been called out again
How silent is the lonely one?
What do we see, what do we know?
Marie Laveau, I’m full of hope
Let me speak until forever more
Volbeat - The Devil's Bleeding Crown
Falling from the sky, they're cast out from the heaven's light
Drenching the soil with blood, baptized in the fire hole
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
Call upon it's Father, bless the goat, the womanizer
Take him to Astaroth, Inanna's temple of Uruk
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
They gathered all the children outside the church
And never would they know what went on in there
Close the door and hear all the angels scream
"Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, oh mercy, please!"
Down, down, down
Down below you can hear his hoof digging through the ground
Oh Lord, Lord, Lord
The horned one is back and he wants his crown
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
Drenching the soil with blood, baptized in the fire hole
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
Call upon it's Father, bless the goat, the womanizer
Take him to Astaroth, Inanna's temple of Uruk
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
They gathered all the children outside the church
And never would they know what went on in there
Close the door and hear all the angels scream
"Oh mercy, mercy, mercy, oh mercy, please!"
Down, down, down
Down below you can hear his hoof digging through the ground
Oh Lord, Lord, Lord
The horned one is back and he wants his crown
The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The Devil's bleeding crown!
Beartooth - King Of Anything
Can't take another second of this hell
Making up stories and saying I'm better off dead
They want me to be this perfect thing
Like everything is fine
Like everything is ok
But I'm not close to perfect
I'm not close to sane
I'm not the one to worship
And I'm not the one to blame
But you made up your mind
And put me on your stage
Just take it all back
I'm not the king of anything
Can't take another second of this pain
I've tried to be the person all of you want me to be
Maybe I'm ok with who I am
I know I'm just a child but I'll try to be a man
But I'm not close to perfect
I'm not close to sane
I'm not the one to worship
And I'm not the one to blame
But you made up your mind
And put me on your stage
Just take it all back
I'm not the king of anything
Making up stories and saying I'm better off dead
They want me to be this perfect thing
Like everything is fine
Like everything is ok
But I'm not close to perfect
I'm not close to sane
I'm not the one to worship
And I'm not the one to blame
But you made up your mind
And put me on your stage
Just take it all back
I'm not the king of anything
Can't take another second of this pain
I've tried to be the person all of you want me to be
Maybe I'm ok with who I am
I know I'm just a child but I'll try to be a man
But I'm not close to perfect
I'm not close to sane
I'm not the one to worship
And I'm not the one to blame
But you made up your mind
And put me on your stage
Just take it all back
I'm not the king of anything
Beartooth - Rock Is Dead
The only way I could feel okay
Turn it up, let the music save me
If I need to ease my pain
When everyone says my world is changing
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
If I make sound, it better be loud
Till my voice is blowing out
What if one day everything changed
Will these words have any use to me
I didn't make it here to let anyone drag me down
If I make sound, it better be loud
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
So you don't understand a word I say
Either way its probably worth listening
If this whole thing's fading away
You better know it's going down swinging
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
If I make sound, it better be loud
Till my voice is blowing out
What if one day everything changed
Will these words have any use to me
I didn't make it here to let anyone drag me down
If I make sound, it better be loud
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
Turn this riff up!
If I make sound, it better be loud
Till my voice is blowing out
What if one day everything changed
Will these words have any use to me
I didn't make it here to let anyone drag me down
If I make sound, it better be loud
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
Turn it up, let the music save me
If I need to ease my pain
When everyone says my world is changing
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
If I make sound, it better be loud
Till my voice is blowing out
What if one day everything changed
Will these words have any use to me
I didn't make it here to let anyone drag me down
If I make sound, it better be loud
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
So you don't understand a word I say
Either way its probably worth listening
If this whole thing's fading away
You better know it's going down swinging
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind
I'd rather be deaf, I'd rather be dead than bored out of my mind

If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
Turn this riff up!

If rock and roll's dead you can kill me right now
