Ghost joins the long tradition of metal bands paying tribute to Europe’s most metal tyrant, Elizabeth Báthory (1560–1614), known for killing virgins and bathing in their blood. It’s said that Elizabeth believed that if she were to bathe in virgin blood, it would help her stay younger.
Elizabeth Lyrics
[Verse 1: Papa Emeritus]
Underneath the moonlight of old Hungarian skies
Buried in the blood-drenched earth, these barren lands of ice
She was an evil woman with an evil old soul
An' piercin' eyes emotionless, a heart so black and cold
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus]
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth
Báthory in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
[Bridge: Papa Emeritus]
Her pact with Satan
Her despisal of mankind
Her acts of cruelty
And her lust for blood
Makes her one of us
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus]
Our ancient countess was refused her desires will
To bathe in pure fresh blood, she'd peasant virgins killed
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus]
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth
Báthory in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth
Báthory in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
