[Verse 1] Born of Titan blood and starlight Torch in her fist on the blackest night She walked with Demeter when the world went cold Held the flame while the story got told Three faces watching every road you take Keys in her pocket, the dead stay awake [Pre] Don’t you hear the hounds Don’t you feel the pull She’s already standing Where the three ways meet [Chorus] Hecate, Hecate, light the dark Torch in the doorway, key in the lock Triple-bodied queen of the in-between Coming for you at the edge of the dream Hecate, Hecate, never dies Ghosts in the moonlight, fire in her eyes Wild wild witch of the crossroads night She’s coming for ya — hold the line [Verse 2] Guardian of thresholds, keeper of keys She rules the hour when the living freeze Necromancy dripping off her tongue Dark of the moon and the work gets done Polecat and dog at her left and right She opens the gate between day and night [Chorus] Hecate, Hecate, light the dark Torch in the doorway, key in the lock Triple-bodied queen of the in-between Coming for you at the edge of the dream Hecate, Hecate, never dies Ghosts in the moonlight, fire in her eyes Wild wild witch of the crossroads night She’s coming for ya — hold the line [Bridge — spoken / half-sung, build] I stand at the place where the three roads kiss I call the Torch-Bearer, I call the Abyss I call the one who searched the night I call the Queen who holds the light Hekate Chthonia — hear my name I walk your boundary. I am not the same. [Final Chorus — bigger, stacked vocals] Hecate, Hecate, light the dark Torch in the doorway, key in the lock Triple-bodied queen of the in-between Coming for you at the edge of the dream Hecate, Hecate, never dies Ghosts in the moonlight, fire in her eyes Wild wild witch of the crossroads night She’s coming for ya She’s coming for ya She’s coming for ya — and the gate swings wide [Outro chant — repeat till it rings] Torch. Key. Crossroads. Night. Hecate. Hecate. Hold the light. Torch. Key. Crossroads. Night. Hecate. Hecate. Hold the light.
