Weakness and Lust Lyrics:
--------------------------------------------------------
I infiltrate your dreams
I am the reason for your adultery
With my concupiscence of the flesh
I will obstruct the venereal act
I am the cause of your impotence
The reason for infertility
With a touch, a look, or an amulet
Your misery is my responsibility
I am the instigator of all hate
I bring the rain and the plague
And for all the sins you commit
I am the one to blame
And confess, I must
I am a liar by nature
The cause of shipwreck
Like the song of the sirens
Luring you to sin with my witchcraft
I am the instigator of all hate
I bring the rain and the plague
And for all the sins you commit
I am the one to blame
And confess, I must
I am driven by weakness and lust
Oh, confess, I must
I am driven by weakness and lust
You can blame it all on me
Your filthy practices and thoughts
Oh, confess, I must
I am driven by weakness and lust
You can blame it all on me
I am the cause of all your loss
I am the instigator of all hate
I bring the rain and the plague
And for all the sins you commit
I am the one to blame
And confess, I must
I am driven by weakness and lust

What a great video
Thank you Blackbriar
What a great editor
Great job Zora.
What a great song, great editing
Five of the greatest musicians
In metal.
Klinkt goed! 😍
your songs convey something indescribable to me.. grazie! from Italy ☠️
Amazing u guys are amazing music Zora you have a beautiful voice :)
her face when she sings the word "witchcraft" 🖤
😈😈😈
She could be good also in some horror film. Good acting and amazing voice.
Pode chamar a Samara, que eu planto o ferro, imagina a Zora
Zora is enchanting and magickal and an instant Gothic Goddess 🌒🌕🌘
I am not sure about acting, thogh. More like she uses the chance to be herself...
Her wide-eyed expression at 1:56 when she says "with my witchcraft" is just perfect.
She writes her own ideas, lyrics and melody. She is a real artist.
I love this song. Fun to have a video to go with it. Zora, you are a natural in front of a camera.
The only edit I would have is that Zora is supernatural in front of a camera.
@@ctberchem7303 There ya go. You one-upped me.
Thank you so much for the beautiful compliments 🖤
Blackbriar = my favorite band 🧙🏼
Same
x2 coach
OMG doc! Vos si sabes de buenas música 🤟🤟
Me alegra verlo por aca, que buen gusto musical tiene!
Mine too!
TBH, I just woke up and read Blackbear instead of Blackbriar. The clip looked so strange so I clicked, I'm glad to have come.
Her voice and eyes are hypnotic, the album is just unbelievable
i have too totally agree with you on her voice haven't got the album as yet
Thank you so much!!! 🖤
*Zora is definitily the queen of gothic rock ever !*
Agreed
Blackbriar makes me feel like a powerful beatiful witch ♥♥
Zora is so theatrical, i love her moves, her facial expressions, she could be an excelent actress
Yes definitely
I really loved the Wicked vibes from Zora, she is fantastic, she put a spell with her vocals.
Her voice calls as a siren does , beautiful and dark perfection. See how she moves her body , as a maelstrom gathering strength. Dangerous but oh so beautiful
Mmm such a perfect dark creature. ❤
Those eyes....wow.
🖤!!!
The expressions you can carry on your face! Startling and fearsome all the way over to coquettish.
I love both Zora's voice and her acting! How fluently she can go between seductive look and a look full of madness is just amazing. Also her movement looks so deliberate - she has great control over her body when she dances, and all the details she pays attention to
Mine aswell, such dark beauty coupled with hypnotic rapturous movement.
I am obsessed with her eyes.
Such dark hypnotic, beautiful and quite feral with passion
Wonderful bombastic fairytale song.
What I feel when I listen to blackbriar songs is surreal. Zora is so talented, what about that voice? Melody? She really knows what she does. Blackbriar is unique. And the fact that I've been following them for years makes me really happy.
If I watched this on 15, I will say it is the best gift on my birthday.
Beautiful. All the things Witches were blamed for in the past and still today. Sensual & Witchy....perfect! 🖤💜🖤🌙
Less than a month since I discovered Blackbriar. Less than a month it took them to become my favorite band.
First contact..
Cant wait to blast this in my car
Agreed most Blackbriar songs sound amazing with a decent system with subs, the songs hit so damn hard.
🖤!!!
Wenn Ausstrahlung und Gesang dermaßen perfekt harmonieren kann man es nur genießen.
This band needs SOOOOOO much more recognition!
RIGHT!!
Those eyes kill me!! 💞
Blackbriar has definetely become symphonic metal royalty by now.
I agree. Her voice is memorizing! I'd love it if she did a cover of Come little children from Hocus Pocus.
@@stephaniesouth6073 She does cover songs on her Patreon. She only recently started letting her Patrons on the $15 tier and up watch them. She may have done Come Little Children in the past or she may do it in the future. I suppose I could find out,
@@ctberchem7303 I wish I could interview her. She is very interesting.
@@NR-xd1vw Are you talking about an interview you would publish somewhere or just as a person talking to her? I think Blackbriar would welcome some publicity and I could ask her. If you just want to ask questions as a fan, the best way is to support her on Patreon. You might be able to ask questions on her discord, but your best bet would be to ask questions when they do a livestream. If however, you have done interviews and published them before... you might be able to get a more professional interview. They really do need to get more exposure.
@@ctberchem7303 No I have never tried an interview before. I can't find any interview with Zora online. Zora's lyrics are interesting. I am curious why she chose to write about the things she writes about. She seems to write about some very dark subject matter and I am curious what is in her head.
Blackbriar went from Fractured Fairytales to Darkened Fairytales and I'm here for it. 🖤🌹
We're happy that you like it 🖤🖤🖤
Blackbriar is the most promising debut in symphonic metal in at least a decade.
Wow! Thank you so much 🖤!!!
Let's go, Blackbriar!
Gotta say, I'm very much a fan of how easily Zora can nail a perfect 'alluring with an not-so-undercurrent of will tear you apart with her bare hands and have you for dinner' expression. Very siren of her. XD
Very well put! 🤣🤣👍
I always think the same thing with these videos. She very pretty, but in a dark fae sort of way.
Your videos are always phenomenal.
Very true
Zora did the editing on this video.
Thank you so much 🖤🖤🖤
Never heard about Blackbriar, so this random video hit me by suprise. Could say a word or two bout the music, but let´s get straight to the point:
The presence of this women is just... Holy crab. Screw the lyrics, scrfew the warning signs, screw everything.
You want my soul? May take it. I´m an old man, no more need for it anyway.
Daaamn, that presence is intense.
Did I say today that I love all blackbriar clips? like, I love it so much. this is my vibe
YESSS
THE BLACK DRESS ❤
🖤!!!
Zora is always amazing, so theatrical, so mesmerizing, captivating. She is my favorite female singer.
This is my favorite song from your new album. I really love it. ❤❤❤
That's amazing to hear, Kata! 🖤 Thank you for your kind words!!!
Her vocals are so delightfully eerie...
I love the intensity of your eyes. I really love how you use your eyes to enhance the song.
Why isn't this group bigger /more famous etc....? The world is an illusion lol, I love other bands but this is fucking amazing other level shit especially complimented by the amazing videos....
Zora is one beautiful looking woman, with a voice to match. Brilliant song, brilliant band.
Personally, I like the way she portrays these stories. It's like a movie. Those eyes stare straight into your soul. 😍
Keep slaying it, Kora and gang!
I recently saw this video on my recommended feed. The thumbnail pic with those eyes had me. Then I heard her sing 😍🥰 OMG! I've decided if I ever meet a siren in real life, I will go willingly.
I love that you are keeping gothic culture alive
I'm so fucking glad that I've discovered this band 😭
That voice. Smooth, haunting, alluring, hypnotic with a tinge of cray cray.
Zora's vocals are amazing and I love her eyes. This album is fantastic I love The Cause of Shipwreck sm
Not gonna lie, I clicked on a video just because thumbnail looks like some character from Final Fantasy.. But I have to say I'm really pleasantly surprised!!
I work as a videomaker. This video is, in my opinion, a master piece!
Zora always is so perfect in the videos. She looks so scary but so sweet too, only with her eyes she looks scary, i love it
Ghoosebumps, when looking to her face, especially her eyes...in combination with her voice and the song...I know, what you mean!
Never thought she could get better. She definitely is out trying to prove something.
Every second of this music video can be a wallpaper... The photography is outstanding. The voice, the visual, the band and melody. Perfect 🖤
Thank you for the amazing compliment, Nora 🖤 It means a lot to us!!
@@blackbriarmusic 🖤🥰
There is a song that sings the same lyrics but from the point of view of the accusers, accusing a so called witch of doing all of the things Zora was confessing in the song. They said that she must confess. Also, her song "Confess" is a prelude to "Weakness and Lust". I'm not sure if. Zora knew this but if she didn't call it witchy intuition that patronizes the accusers in the other song by confessing in this song what they blame her for. Genius! I just love Blackbriar. So unique and Zora's haunting soprano voice is enchanting, truly. Blackbriar is one of my favorite bands if not my number 1. Love all your albums! Keep the magic going. Many Blessings
Yes Zora has verified that Weakness and Lust, Confess and I'd Rather Burn are all connected.
@@ctberchem7303 Yes, I know. I'm just trying to find the song titled by Blackbriar weakness and lust, the other song that I believe came out first. It is an old witchy sound with a puritan man accusing a so called witch of what Zora confesses in Weakness and Lust. For example he would say "for all the sins I commit, you are the one to blame. confess, you must confess. you are driving by weakens and lust you must confess." I'm going to attempt to find it and link it here. That is what I was talking about that was gnarly. I just love how she patronizes them by confessing to all they accuse her of. That was it.
@@ctberchem7303 I found it : ua-cam.com/video/_kEFwjXiIMs/v-deo.html
Weakness and Lust ... The lyrics in this song are very powerful. Love it.
We're happy that you like it, Pablo 🖤 Thank you!
Anything witchy and sensual like this....I can't stop watching this. It has me entranced! Love it!!
we should praise blackbriar's music videos, they may look simple but actually they're really classy, beautiful, and bewitching. shout out to the cameraman, editor and everyone involved in the making of blackbriar's music videos. i hope we're getting a music videos for deadly diminuendo and lilith be gone
I love how haunting this is
Would love to see you in the US. Amazing voice and great band
Unrelated pitch, if they ever remake Fifth Element...
Get this lass to play Le-lu... She has the "Slow Head Tilt" and "Aggressive Stare" NAILED to an art form XD
Zora is a dream... Her voice is magnificent... She is the most beautiful rose....
this is underrated.. i dont believe how people sleep on this.. this band one of my favorite band
They are very new so need to give it some time. How many people even know about this band?
Thank you so much 🖤🖤🖤
@@blackbriarmusic Best new band for sure. I hope you are able to play in the US in 2022. We already have some bands scheduled for the fall.
A powerful and unbeliavable beautiful voice, intense and hipnotizing eyes, charming and unique expressions...
yes, this is Zora Cock for all you.
Blackbriar and their amazing productions... Restless and flawless.
Thank you so much for your amazing compliments, Syonne! It means a lot to us!!! 🖤🖤🖤
Can't stop watching this video. The best one so far. It shows all the commitment of the band to always give 100% of themselves, production and editing included.
Blackbriar: creating excellence since 2012.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever seen and one of the most cinematic videos ever!
Pure gold! 🖤
Loved your reaction video!
How can someone be so utterly frightening and beautiful at the same time is beyond my comprehension. Otherworldly. Fantastic work.
There lies Beauty within Darkness
Thank you for your beautiful compliment 🖤🖤🖤
Красота 🖤
🖤!!!
I know it's probably a coincidence, but the line "I am a liar by nature", got me thinking because if there are riptides, it's usually the calmest looking spots in the ocean that have them, hence the "lie".
Deeply unnerving, utterly beautiful.
EXCELLENT !!!
Thank you so much 🖤
I love how well this fits with Confess, it's like in the past, after the alleged "Witches" gave outrageous confessions after being tortured for days. Here, it seems to be similar to that, pretty much giving herself all the blame for... well, all sins. I love the vocals, verses, album altogether, this is amazing!
I don't think Zora has officially said that this song and "Confess" are linked, but before the album release Zora did tell her Patreon supporters that two songs on the album were linked. I think we will have to wait until the "Behind the Lyrics" for "The Cause of Shipwreck" to be released to get the official confirmation but it seems likely that you are right!
You're spot on! 🖤 Thank you for your kind words, it means the world to us!!!
I LOVED IT! My God!
Thank you so much 🖤!!!
Zora's costumes and expressions get better with each and every video. So happy about the new video! Thank you guys for your hard work.
Thank you for the compliment!! That's amazing to hear 🖤🖤🖤
I'm pretty sure Zora knows, understands, sees things that some people won't see...She has this..unexplainable thing about her, something beautiful and mysterious, I can feel it 😊🌌
I'm so mad I didn't come across you sooner.
This is so unique and beautiful. Also plays beautifully into my love of Renaissance and witchcraft vibes without being too pressed.
Bet I'm going to share the hell out of this
Voice of a siren
The chorus just blew my mind..Holy sh*t..Her voice is outstanding!!
As a pagan I love this song so much it resonates with me alot! I love black briar so much ❤
Zora is a Queen
Queen of metal ❤️❤️
🖤!!!
What a beautiful video and song❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
"Wicca metal" at its finest.. 🖤🦇
Qween 🖤🔥👌
Those eyes! I don't know what it is about Zora's eyes. They literally just pull you in every time. I am so convinced that she has to be a siren! Her voice just gets stuck in your head. I had I'd rather burn stuck in my head for days. Zora is insanely beautiful you can't help getting lost in the music, and those eyes. Once this Covid-19 finally slows down i got to find a way to see you in concert. Blackbriar is on my top 5 bands to see live.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Darkblaze 🖤 It truly means the world to us and we hope to see you at a concert one day soon!!!
them eyes for sure metaphorically devour you.
My god, why are you not one of the biggest bands in the world? Zora is beautiful and the imagery she portrays is perfect for the music. The music is excellent, I've not heard one of your songs that I don't like, they are all gems. I can't believe that no one has snapped you up. I hope that one day someone sees sense because you are a brilliant, innovative and musically accomplished band. I look forward to more music. Oh, the video is superb.
With Charlotte Wessels having left Delian Zora would be a good replacement. She needs a bigger platform.
@@tobymaxmax658 Blackbriar is a big platform, they are the most succesful independent symphonic metal band i've seen.
How beautifully macabre!
Театр одного актера! Мрачно, жутко, насыщенно! Безумие!!!!
7hey wanna be friends?
Teach me Russian and I'll.. give u the details
I seriously cannot get enough of this album
That's incredible to hear!! Thank you so much, William! 🖤
They say that those who do music are are geniuses!
I never get tired of this song and the video, Zora is fantastic, You can't stop watch her. I want to see them in my country, I need it.
This might be my favorite MV in the new album. So dark and mesmerizing.
Wow! That's amazing to hear! 🖤 Thank you, Khiara 🖤
Ooooooooh 0:44 GOOSEBUMPS!
🖤!!!!
The music, the visuals, the ambience, it's just... wonderful!!!
I like it when an album is named after a line from one of the songs, instead of the name of a song. ❤️
Those notes after she says "my responsibility" sounds like she's LAUGHING at you...
This band never disappoints, love them
Wow! Thank you so much 🖤!!!
Hauntingly beautiful and darkly disturbing. The perfect image of Zora and Blackbriar.
Thank you so much for the beautiful compliment 🖤🖤🖤
How does one not fall in love with zora!?
🤘Rock On🤘Blackbriar for EuroVision 2022🤘🇪🇺
