"Pontianak Part II"
from the album NEVER ENDING NIGHTMARES
Music Written and Performed by Rogga Johansson
Guest Guitar Solo by Lasse Pyykkö
Lyrics by Jill Girardi
If you ever should witness her, pretend it was a dream
Don't ever try to speak of all the horrors that you've seen
Dare to speak her name, and she'll come to you again
And drain you of your blood this time, before you even scream
When the dogs howl at night and the children start to cry
And the birds fall silent and the insects are still
Lock your doors, stay inside, don't look to the night sky
That's when she rides the wind, looking for a kill
Mothers be warned, keep your children from her sight
She'll take them from their beds in the dead of the night
She passes right through all barred windows and locked doors
Without a sound she glides, her feet don't reach the floor
Nothing can save you from the rage of the abhorred
Blood glutted feasting, demonic woman straight from hell
EXPLANATION: PONTIANAK (Malaysia / Asia)
You may have seen this ghost girl with long black hair hiding her face and white nightgown in many Asian horror movies such as Ringu. A Pontianak is the ghost of a woman who died in childbirth or who was defiled and murdered. The Pontianak who died in childbirth can sometimes be seen standing on the side of the road holding her tombstone in her arms as if she's cradling her baby. The Pontianak who was murdered is believed to be a vampire and will not rest until she either kills her murderer or one of the line of his descendants.
