Traipse Across the Empty Graves

My grave below Is bitter cold Swallowed at death The imminent end Vicious way of life I must repent To free me at once Freezing regrets Can this tomb crumble away Worms murmur Sorrow beckons again Can this grave crumble away Worms aghast Sorrow greets me again Can this tomb be here to stay Worms my ending, once again A pinebox penance

Hark...it speaks But when they came to grieve No utterance reached their ears Only crisp leaves and hollow winds Hark...it speaks And when they came to grieve A black shudder befell Caused them all to fear Fingers scratching Faint yet strong Nails digging A frantic moan Panicked specter Cries of woe Haunted lost soul Groaning below Groans below Vicious anger Builds within Frightened loved ones Pray for leave Vengeful spirit Nears escape Hark it speaks Death is here! Groans below

I beseech thee young traveler Come to me this night I traipse upon cold shallow dirt To places I canst never know Sit with me be a counsel Feel my pain and empathize See a wonderment of suffering The Beyond has the Devil's eyes Look into the mist afar My journey has brought me liberty The trek I make is endless And leads me to clouded paths Fires behind, nothingness ahead I trade my toils for death I am...the wraith in the fog

Anguish Exalted in agony Take me home Where I will hear you The sorrow screams to me Leads me to rest I comfort in its bawling The darkness leaves me blessed Whispers of Sorrow Anguish Exalted in wretched filth Take me home Where I can hear you The sorrow screams to me And leads me to rest I bathe in its resonance As the darkness leaves me blessed Whispers of Sorrow The whisper screams suffering Is this really happening to me I can find no escape My own wails are silent There is no escape I'm trapped in my woe Whispers of Sorrow

Down goes the sun A glimpse of what is to come Is but only a blur In my dying dreams Hopeless and helpless Forever more... Through smoke and sadness In ashes of the past I walk in solitude Floating alone Drifting away from life I walk these paths In the hopeless realm

Candlelight surrounds me But it is still so dark I see a figure ahead It is unclear but ominous It is him...no!! No!! His Majesty The Count of Death and Despair His hand outstretched For my lost soul His Majesty The black prince of the night His Majesty! On his sulfur throne.... Beckoning me His Majesty!

Bad dreams of a cold vessel Trapped in a void The eyes of strangers affixed on me And the fingers of the living ghosts probe A faint driving heart Thumps to a funerary dirge Dull air and shallow haunting breaths Comatose twilight... Coma Living yet lifeless cocoon Coma My fate, our fate... Coma Lifeless nightmare Coma Bad dreams of a cold vessel Trapped in a void The eyes of strangers affixed And the fingers of the living ghosts A faint dying heart Thumps a funeral dirge Dull air and haunting breaths Comatose twilight... Coma Living yet lifeless cocoon Coma My fate, our fate... Coma Lifeless nightmare Coma

Vicious and relentless Unfathomable death Coward and hero fall as one We traipse the same empty graves Open casket telepathies The joining of souls A journey bound and chained Load into the boat on the river Styx For you are dead... The nightmares have come The nightmares.... ...have come! Vicious and relentless That terrible death Coward and hero fall as one We traipse over the same empty graves Closed casket telepaths Strange joined souls A journey chained Load into the boat on the river Styx For you are dead... The nightmares have come

Abysmal shades and shadows Creep across my eyes The shapes that haunt me The dark that lights my way By the candlelight I see But by the dim I fall I reach out for anyone But no one heeds my call Abstract abyss Greet me Fear me Bless me, I am home... Home! Abysmal shades and shadows The creeps across our eyes The shapes that haunt me The dark that lights my way By the candlelight I see But by the dim I fall I reach out for mother But she no longer hears my call In the abstract abyss....I am home! Home! The abstract abyss...
