This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Underneath the monlight of old hungerian skies
buried in the blood-drenched earth
These barren lands of ice
She was an evil woman with an evil old soul
Piercing eyes emotionless
a heart so black and cold
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Her pact with Satan
Her dispisal of mankind
Her acts of cruelty and her lust for blood
Makes her one of us
Our ancient countess was refused her desires will
To bathe in pure fresh blood
She'd peasant virgins killed
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
buried in the blood-drenched earth
These barren lands of ice
She was an evil woman with an evil old soul
Piercing eyes emotionless
a heart so black and cold
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Her pact with Satan
Her dispisal of mankind
Her acts of cruelty and her lust for blood
Makes her one of us
Our ancient countess was refused her desires will
To bathe in pure fresh blood
She'd peasant virgins killed
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
As @timshanks1 mentioned it is reference to Elizabeth Báthory who was a countess in Hungary who murdered young girls and women and then bathed in their blood believing it would make her look young (stay young in appearance).
Lots of lines in the songs relate to this:
"old Hungarian skies" "Forever young, Elizabeth Báthory in the castle of your death" "Her acts of cruelty and her lust for blood" "Our ancient countess was refused her desires will To bathe in pure fresh blood She'd peasant virgins killed"
Not sure how to take some of Ghost's lyrics. Are they literally agreeing with her actions? Simply recollecting an historical account? Being satirical?
This song's about Elizabeth Bathory. And Satan.
LOL'd at this one. :)
As to sokorny's question to me this is the narrator, Papa, being in love with the Countess Bathory. He's proselytizing about this evil old woman with the cold black eyes that murdered virgin peasants to bathe in their blood to keep herself young and beautiful and how, because of that, she's not only part of their dark congregation but they are either currently lovers or it's an unrequited love. Personally I think it's the latter.
For those who don't know Countess Bathory was eventually found out and locked up until her dying day in a tower in her castle. To me the song is Papa saying his love is up in that tower, still alive, and he will eventually rescue her from her captors and they will live evil-ly ever after
