Het Vrouwenhuis Lyrics

 Early in the morning
I rise and stand,
I touch my sword
in the palm of my hand
 

 

Early in the morning
in my tower on my land
I break the dawn
with the sword in my hand
 

Awaken and be a woman now

I stumble down,

To the ground floor.
The time-clock is waiting,

and my horse at the door.

 

I let down my drawbridge,

heading for the first arbour,
there in a glass coffin
lies my daily labour.
 

 

I thank the birds
and the goddess of the Tree,
I taste the lips
of a hungry girl.

She smiles blue eyes
and innocent she is.

I say I cannot stay
gotta be on the way.

 

 

The next girl is sleeping,

I do what I have to do.
My sword is my Lord,
and there is my tower too.
I leave her and she cries,
and in her coffin of glass,
she will always remember,

She will always see my eyes.

 

 

The day goes on,
full with coffins and girls.
I greet them and ride
my passionate sword on my side.

 

I pull up my drawbridge
and stable my worn out horse.
The time-clock says finished,
for today. Tomorrow you’ll walk the same way.

 

 

  

Silence
(track 7)

It gives me peace, it gives me love.
It gives me silence from above,
I find a place, a nest so safe,
I’ll find my peace, my secret grave.
 

 

I am the diamond, I am the heart,
my eyes are brilliant, my brain is smart.
I am the panther that raids at night,
I am a lover, lover at first sight.
 

 

Be distant, wait on the border
give me peace and don’t you order.
Don’t look at me, don’t make me smile.
For I am a soul, a soul in exile.

 I have this longing,
this wondering inside
and I’m dying, I’m crying
for my female bride.

 

Give me my freedom, my love,
Give me your love.
Show me, show me you’re not afraid,
you’re not afraid, my love.

 

Yoni

(track 3)

 

You stand up in your shell,
I cannot, will not believe it is true.

You are woman, so unashamed,

Yoni, yoni, I crave for you.

Your skin of silk, your lips of milk,
your deep warm cave, my deepest promise,

My grace, my heavenly grave.

 

I see the universe, I can see the stars

You are my cosmic vision, my womb,

And I wonder, I’m afraid

to be eternally doomed.
Yoni, yoni I so want you.
I am the dagger, your last embrace,
I travel your blood and veins, I enter
in my secret lake and drown, yoni.

Yoni, let me sleep inside you
make me dream, make me scream

 

 

 Son of the dragon

(track 2)

 

I sweep my tail, I burn inside
I will scorch you, shrivel you to dust
with my lethal breath, my flaming hate.
I rage, I ride like a werewolf in the night.

I guard my secret, protect my pain,

I pray the gods on the earth and in the sky,

Save the magic, save my life.

 

You cannot touch me, you can never win
from my power, my pride, my human sin.
You cannot fight or emprison me
I will always remain free, son of the dragon,
look at me. I am passion, I am soul,
I am ancient, I am whole,
I roar in the night on chariots of fire.

 

I am the power, don’t look at me like that
what treasure, what sweetness do you hide

And try to show, with innocence and pride.
Ride me in the night, I am passion, I am soul,
I am ancient, I am whole,
I roar in the night on chariots of fire.
