Swallowtail Songtext

Swallowtail Songtext
Brimstone eyes she hath
Black in colour, looking sad
The hair like straw, her skin so raw
A debauchery decadent
Grandmother used to tell
"Beware, do not go near the hut I say!"
It was believed to be the home of a witch
A house left in decay
They speakest alright ′cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Ivy all around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in darkness
They speakest alright 'cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Ivy all around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in darkness
People brave enough
Went and faced the things they said
They never came back, neither to be
Sorry for their misbelief
Only pieces of their bodies hanging up
On the strangest trees they found
Forming shapes that may have linked
To whom the parts belonged in a whole lifetime
They speakest alright ′cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Ivy all around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in darkness
In her arms you'll crackle like fire
In the night you'll see her swallowtail
When she′s near you′ll hear hell's choirs
Run (as) fast as you can, right in the arms of the unknown
In her arms you′ll crackle like fire
In the night you'll see her swallowtail
When she′s near you'll hear hell′s choirs
Run (as) fast as you can, right in the arms of the unknown
Swallowtail, swallowtail
They told me that your evil would prevail on me
But now I know you are not what they say
Swallowtail, swallowtail
Your beauty comes like sunshine after rain, so warm
An unexpected spark to wash away the dark
She was supposed to be so old
Deceitful not deceivable
Death she'd exhale from the never ending rings hanging on her nose
They speakest no right 'cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Butterflies around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in beauty
In her arms you′ll crackle like fire
In the night you′ll see her swallowtail
When she's near you′ll hear hell's choirs
Run (as) fast as you can, right in the arms of the unknown
All the things they told me - liars!
All because she is too beautiful
I know I won′t go back
'Cause at the end I′ll be a butterfly
Swallowtail, swallowtail
They told me that your evil would prevail on me
But now I know you are not what they say
Swallowtail, swallowtail
Your beauty comes like sunshine after rain, so warm
An unexpected spark to wash away the dark
Black in colour, looking sad
The hair like straw, her skin so raw
A debauchery decadent
Grandmother used to tell
"Beware, do not go near the hut I say!"
It was believed to be the home of a witch
A house left in decay
They speakest alright ′cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Ivy all around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in darkness
They speakest alright 'cause I went one night
And saw the old house
Ivy all around, suddenly I was bound
And fell in darkness
People brave enough
Went and faced the things they said
They never came back, neither to be
Sorry for their misbelief
Only pieces of their bodies hanging up
On the strangest trees they found

To whom the parts belonged in a whole lifetime
They speakest alright ′cause I went one night

In her arms you'll crackle like fire
In the night you'll see her swallowtail
When she′s near you′ll hear hell's choirs

In her arms you′ll crackle like fire
In the night you'll see her swallowtail
When she′s near you'll hear hell′s choirs

Your beauty comes like sunshine after rain, so warm
An unexpected spark to wash away the dark
