THE NIGHT SPOKE

Fridged cold
I welcome thee O' Night
Bless me with decay
Dead trees surround me
Possessed by the moon
A journey to the cemetery
In search of human death
A field of graves
Conquering my sight
How many lives before
Heard it's eerie call?
A spirit in the mist
Points me to my grave
How long have I been dead?
Will I ever be alive?
(The night spoke...
Become of me O' Death
So that I may see wisdom
Beyond the grave and stars
Revealed unto thee)
I am the grave
I am the tomb
I am the coffin
I am the womb
I am the serpent
That bites the tail
I am the keeper
Of the veil

In shock I rise to see the crimson fall
Flesh no longer bound to me
A hand reaches to the sky
But is this flesh my own?
Imprisoned in my mind
I hear the Reaper's call
Eyes open straining
towards the corner of the room
A figure leaves me paralyzed
In unrelenting terror
Motionless...a face in the dark looks to me
Blood is on the wall...blood is on the wall!
I have become the horror
I have become the night
My thoughts are not my own
Hovering cold and wraith-like
An echo of life trapped within these walls
A remnant of Death lost to eternity
To roam...for all time
A death
A death that is my own but is it of my life?
I close my eyes
I see the hand reach to the sky
Death
A death that was my life
Blood is on the wall! Blood is on the wall!

Howling winds fill the void of a silent crypt
A flame reveals the path of web and stone
Of root and dust
Centuries of decay lifeless through time
Death adorns the relics untouched and cold
Through the scent of stone
And buried life alone
A corpse reduced to rot
Never to be seen again
A casket in the night hides below the moon
I lift the lid to behold
The mysteries of The Dead

Reminiscent of a different time
How long has it been since I lived?
This night seems endless
I have a faint remembrance of the sun
But that was so long ago
Withering away with every step I take
Like a lost and forgotten dream
A fleeting grain of sand in an hourglass
That has laid still and untouched
For centuries
I see the winds in the night blow through
The branches of dead trees as they scatter
Their lifeless leaves around me
But I feel nothing
I try to embrace them as my own
For I too am in Death
Seeking to break free
But I feel nothing
Only a mournful longing
For a life I can't remember
But commands my every move
Towards my own grave
Possessed and bound to this journey
I beg Death to light the cemetery
To show me the path
To reunite with myself
And put an end to this eternal dream of life

HUMAN ASHES ON MY FACE
03:58
|
|
||
|
I collide my head against the tombstone
To absorb the lost wisdom
A flash of white
My eyes open
I am become awakened
Crossing the psychic bridge
In undeath welcoming
Blessed and bestowed
With the strength of The Dead
Powers has been granted
Human ashes on my face
Human bones by my side
Speak to me
Unlock your wisdom
Grant me the power
To walk this Earth an ally of Death
A wraith in the fog
A force unseen
Empowered by the cemetery moon

A night so cold
A death so bright
They call to bring you home
Unseen but to be seen
When the hand is on the stone
Fallen ones servants of the soil
Rise in the night
Shrouded in darkness the veil decays
As the light of Death comes into sight
And guides you by the fog to the grave
A night so cold
A death so bright
They call to bring you home
Unseen but to be seen
When the hand is on the stone
Fallen ones servants of the soil
Rise in the night
Shrouded in darkness the veil decays
A grim request returns you to the grave

I am the bones beneath the house
I am the one within the walls
I am the shadow in the room
I am the thing you fear in the night
I exist to watch you die
I consume all your peace
I become all your fear
I create all your suffering
I bleed all your flesh
I possess all your mind
I become all your terror
I will take everything you love
I will show you my own death
I am the one who had life
I am the forgotten bones
Which dwell beneath your home
My hate grows with every second you live
