Demons [A Mexican Fiesta] lyrics

Clouds pass over the moon

Like an eye that shows impending doom

Tension in this misty air

Souls pass into the room

Drawn in by a lost memory

You will join them in the moonlight

You are my offering

Your soul transcends the centuries of pain

Your misery in life

Is your ecstasy in death

Time passes like the wind

As we race to beat days dusky grin

The mornings just a moment away

Your body glistens in candlelight

As we all look on in fiendish delight

The ritual is just beginning

Come fulfill the prophecy

With our demons of debauchery

As virgins and spectress sing

This madness will never cease

In the dead of night

You will follow in the footsteps of many others

Who have come before

I will show you at the altar

Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair

Your beauty bestowed upon my lair

I've loved you before in other lives

But you've never meant as much to me

Never meant as much to me as now

In this night of sacrifice

Where blood is spilt

That will never spill again

But in your linen robes

We want you now [x2]

You could never ask for more than

You are my offering

Your soul transcends the centuries of pain

Your misery in life

Is your ecstasy in death

Come fulfill the prophecy

With our demons of debauchery

This madness will never cease
