Les Enfants Terribles past-members-nav-header

A pretty lady visits in your dreams
with sights and sounds that you’ve never seen
If you’ve fallen under her spell
you’ll never escape this living hell

The Hammer of the Witches falls on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
You can run, but you can’t hide
The Hammer of the Witches comes crashing down on you

A thousand images which seem like dreams
swim through your mind, but you can’t se
the real evil lurking beneath
the lies she tells and promises to keep

The Hammer of the Witches lays it’s mark on you
Now that it has, you don’t know what to do
You can run, but you’ll never hide
Mallus Maleficarum will find you and you’ll die

(Solo)

The evil in your heart unfolds
like the petals of a funeral rose
The 13th witch, she’s the key
The doorway to eternity

The Hammer of the Witches comes down on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
If you believe in reincarnation
Do you believe in all the powers that could be

Behold the witching hour finally at hand
The devil’s bride, she takes your hand
The funeral pyer burning higher and higer
flames lick the sky with a kiss of desire

The Hammer of the Witches falls on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
You can run, but you can’t hide
When the Hammer of the Witches comes crashing down on you
