I was born past midnight 'Neath the gloom of the darkest moon My mother was a burning witch And my father was a preacher From that night on I lived in ♪ The shadow of my elder's deeds I was the son of rape And the spawn of preacher's lost faith ♪ Dear mother, dear father I didn't ask to be born Why did you let me leave When you didn't care at all ♪ My life here on earth troubled already from the day of my birth Heaven turns to hell at the chime of the witches' bell
