the mossy chapel sits lonely in the deepest woods
you've wandered too far
He draws near.
what was once serene
autumn breeze winding through the trees
now yields the looming tower
ominous and oppressive
the forest becomes quiet
He draws near.
|
||||
2. |
||||
in its lowest chambers
unseen recesses
forgotten and locked away
built to be left behind
to let evil decay
but something lingers
trapped in the abyss
feeding on rats and worms
a deity forgotten
imprisoned, and left to rot
we are in his presence
doom fills our hearts
but we've come too far
and whats done has been done
emanating from the cellar
where the grief never ends
doom always approaches
in the shadow of the mossy chapel
where the blood never dries
|
||||
3. |
||||
a corruption of the forest
no birds nest here
no songs are sung
nature has lost a piece of itself
nothing good here dwells
nothing noble is left
and not a soul left to tell
|
||||
4. |
||||
the way back is lost
the shadows shift and wind
danger is present
and it grows stronger with every shiver of our fear
|
||||
5. |
||||
the blanket of nightfall
wander through the chapel grounds
from the graveyard we can see
a single candle flame
in the highest window
some sanguine sacrosanct ceremony
what ritual could this be
and who might be its conductor?
silence in the cemetery grounds.
soon to be broken
|
||||
6. |
||||
hands once feeble
moribund in shackles
mouth once filled with worms and filth
He approaches
the shriek of coming Death
heard throughout the forest
antlers in the night
far too tall
on two legs He strides
His power has grown
hide.
