Lyrics

Witch Wolf

Reoccurring symptoms

Answer the baleful howl

Bringing me dreams of darkness

The doer of all that's foul

Raping the minds of infants

Sower of unplanted seeds

Full moon warrior

Doer of sordid deeds

Witch wolf

Night rider

Why do you call for me?

Thirteenth hour madman

Bringing my soul to fire

Visions of my sweet beulah

To torment soon retire

Witch wolf

Night rider

Why do you call for me?

Got my one-way ticket

On this hell bound train

I can't seem to stop falling

I bear the wrath of cain

Witch wolf

Night rider

Why do you call for me?
