Assassins of Carthage Lyrics

Shadows dance in the veil of moonlight
Across rooftops, without a sound they glide
Hired blades in Pygmalion's command
Tonight Acerbas draws final breath

Widow makers at behest, as queen Dido will attest
By the mourning light of dawn, grisly deed it will be done

Trail of tears, spell of fear
Come feed my blade
Bloody rite, sacrifice
Dead speak my name

Collapsed in lifeless heaps the guards meet their end
Kissed by death darts protruding from their neck
Quickly rush to the quarters of the king
A billowing curtain hides the scene

Widow makers at behest, kings bleed out just like the rest
By the mourning light of dawn, grisly deed it will be done

Trail of tears, spell of fear
Come feed my blade
Bloody rite, sacrifice
Dead speak my name

Trail of tears, spell of fear
Come feed my blade
Bloody rite, sacrifice
Dead speak my name

Trail of tears, spell of fear
Come feed my blade
Bloody rite, sacrifice
Dead speak my name

Predator, mercy scorned
Hunter profane
Bloody rite, sacrifice
Assassins' reign
