[Intro] Luna domina… Surge, filia noctis… [Verse] I wake where the silver cuts the sky With ash on my tongue and fire in my veins Once I knelt where the weak ones pray Now I rule where the wild remains They chained my name to a mortal lie Called the hunger a curse, a sin But I heard the moon reply When the beast awakens, begin. [Pre-Chorus] Hear my breath in the forest bone Every scar a crown I wear I was never meant to be alone I was born to lead the lair [Chorus] I am the mother of the howl Claw and faith entwined By the moon I’m crowned and bound Queen of teeth and time I am the mother of the howl Blood sings when I rise When the night demands a throne I answer with my cry [Verse] I drank the dark, I broke the seal Felt heaven crack beneath my skin No altar left that I could kneel So I built my church in the wind Sisters marked by silver flame Brothers sworn in fur and rage We shed the lie, we shed the name Of the cages of the age [Pre-Chorus] Let them tremble at the sound Of a prayer they can’t control When the hunt becomes a crown I inherit every soul [Chorus] I am the mother of the howl Claw and faith entwined By the moon I’m crowned and bound Queen of teeth and time I am the mother of the howl Hear the forest rise When the night demands a throne I answer with my cry [Bridge - Choir] Luna mater, sanguis verum Fera sancta, regna tenem Ulula, domina, surge nunc [Breakdown - spoken] They feared the woman They feared the beast But I am both And I will feast [Final Chorus] I am the mother of the howl First fang of the night From the wound where fear was born I forged eternal sight I am the mother of the howl Marked by moon and scar When the world denies its teeth I remind it who we are [Outro] Ulula… Ulula… Mater noctis…
