lyrics

I feel the growing need
The scent of blood will draw me closer
The pallid moon above emits
Its searing light on me
Below my feet I feel the soaked ground
Of the haunted woodlands
Red mist before my eyes
The threshold of bestiality

Running free in gloomy night
Altered by the warping light
Free the beast kept deep inside
Blood Moon Rising!
Bestial fangs pierce frightful skin
Release the enemy within
Pale light reflects on wolfish grin
Blood Moon Rising!

Beware all living souls
For I'm the hunter in the shadows
My sharpened senses will receive
The sweet scent of my prey
I run alone, just the white orb
Illuminates the prowler
No one is saved
Until the birds announce the day

My eyes pierce the darkness, I howl at the moon
A blood-curdling wailing penetrating the silence
Gore coalesces on the ground I have stalked on
The Blood Moon unveils my testimony of violence

All nightly predators obey my need
And heed my calling
My tortured baying to the night sky
Haunts your very sleep

I hear your screaming
Red eyes are gleaming

No-one can run when his fate strikes so soon
Warm blood runs free in the light of the moon

Blood Moon Rising! (2x)

The beast in me, the carmine breed
Struggling awkward to break free
A different shape bursts forth from me
The full moon’s eye is all I see

My eyes pierce the darkness, I howl at the moon
A blood-curdling wailing penetrating the silence
Gore coagulates on the ground I have stalked on
The Blood Moon unveils my testimony of violence
