When Annis built this cage I saw the blueprint on the table 
But I was too young to run 
She lured me from my plain Into her clandestine domain 
To tend her illicit garden 

Black, black soul, and Annis takes her toll 
Child of sin, Black Annis wins again 

And from her veil of black 
With all the mirrors at her back 
She called me into her guarded empire I treaded soft and lightly 
A fear trembling so slightly 
Snows in my bones, I dream of the white sea 

Black, black soul, and Annis takes her toll 
Child of sin, Black Annis wins again 

When Annis roared and cheered 
I knew that no one leaves from here 
Cause her fervent anger don't spare anything 
Oh, in a frenzy I dug my trenches 
She confiscated my defenses 
With all the forces of night 

Black, black soul, and Annis takes her toll 
Child of sin, Black Annis wins again 

So many years ago I still feel her in my bones 
I still see her in my dreams 
And in the bright of day 
She'll come carry me away 
On the black wings of the raven 
On the pitch black wings of 

Black, black soul, and Annis takes her toll 
Child of sin, Black Annis wins again 
Black, black soul
