Keylor’s rage is burning for all her slaughtered kin
Pray gods we reach the back door while she’s still coming in
She spares no man or woman, her eyes blaze like the sun
She moves like nothing human – good gods, what has she done?
“Keylor’s Rage,” sung by Heather Alexander, based on lyrics in Andre Norton’s Witch World novels. Full lyrics under the cut.
Keylor’s rage is burning for all her slaughtered kin
Pray gods we reach the back door while she’s still coming in
She spares no man or woman, her eyes blaze like the sun
She moves like nothing human – good gods, what has she done?
Oh, say she didn’t go to Blazing Hill
She didn’t spend the night on Blazing Hill
Her sword is made of lightning, it’s striking death and flame
The very stones are melting, the fires roar out her name!
Come run across the river and pray hard every man
She can’t cross running water – oh gods, I think she can!
I think she sang all night on Blazing Hill
I think she walked the stones on Blazing Hill
Keylor’s rage is burning with all the fires of hell
The price she paid to call them the gods alone can tell
And now the earth is shaking, oh hear her laugh once more
The old volcano’s waking, she’s opened up the door!
She’s called the fires up on Blazing Hill
She’s brought the fires down from Blazing Hill
She’s bringing down the fires of Blazing Hill
