Active Listening: Samhain

Friday, October 27th, 2006
Its almost Halloween so today here are some spooky lyrics from Glenn Danzig’s incredible slow burn post-Misfits band Samhain.

 Archangel

Go
Heaven sends me here to you
And if a-you fear you’ve reason to
Open up all seven seals
The beast is come to claim the youth

Archangel
Archangel
Defiant brood
Defiant brood
I call on you

Casted down my bretheren
Rebels from authority
Power, pride, contempt and lust
All these things I give to you 

Archangel
Archangel
Defiant brood
Defiant brood
I call on youI am not your son of God
The prince of light will show no fear
Mine is that which rules this world
The beast is come, I am the end

Archangel
Archangel

And when they cast out the brood
For the sin of pride misused
And when they cast down to Hell
Fucking brood

Archangel
Archangel

Heaven sends me here to you
And if a-you fear you’ve reason to
Open up all seven seals
The beast is come to claim the youth

Archangel
Archangel
Archangel
Archangel
Go

Archangel
