About Karma Of The Wicker Man:

Karma Of The Wicker Man is a song by Vampyrouss initially appearing on their 2006 demo "Gazing Upon The Harvest Moon". The song was later re-recorded with a completely different sound in a new key for the 2008 release "Prologue" but this version was never completed and dropped from the final tracklisting. 


The song returned to it's original key and structure, although with a beefed up folk driven sound for the 2017 album "Compendium Vampyrica" and then appeared along with the whole Vampyrouss back catalogue on the "Barely (A)Live Rehearsal" release in 2021.

The symbol of Death reflected in her eyes

Feelings of remorse suggest a shattered mind

Remembering how she let the flame expire

Watching the line drawn deep beneath the mire


The flames grow higher illuminating her lies

But for one last time her true beauty shines

Under the shadow of her wicker tomb

She seeks reconcilement with the one she slew...


Once the back is turned the deed is done

As ceremonial pyres light beneath the setting sun

Time grows short as the Pagan chants arise

Emotionless she stands with only Karma by her side


The waning sun barters with the night

As the embers below begin to rise

The lick of flames drown out her cries

Until only ashes blow into the mourning skies...
