About this song
She walks among the fallen bones and whispers to the dead. This song brings Liliana Vess to life in her most terrifying form - the Death Wielder from Amonkhet, where her necromantic powers reached their apex.
Lyrics
(Verse 1) In the shadows where the lilies grow Where the living fear to tread She walks among the fallen bones And whispers to the dead Her eyes like violet funeral pyres Her touch a slow decay She marks the flesh with withering And watches life give way (Chorus) Liliana, death wielder Queen of the veiled night She counts the heartbeats fading Extinguishes the light With every soul that crumbles Her ancient power swells The graveyard is her garden And darkness knows her well (Verse 2) A counter here, a curse bestowed The rot begins to spread The strongest fall like autumn leaves When she has marked them dead No armor holds, no prayer avails Against her patient art She needs not rush the killing blow Decay will play its part (Chorus) Liliana, death wielder Queen of the veiled night She counts the heartbeats fading Extinguishes the light With every soul that crumbles Her ancient power swells The graveyard is her garden And darkness knows her well (Bridge) But when her hour of triumph comes The graves give up their dead
