Lyrics


1. STONED TO DEATH

Flying through the skies
Closing pyramid's eyes
Holy jewels in threat of fire
To serve the scaly god's desire

Peasants in the town conspire
Worshipped warriors fit to die
A sickly merchant hair of wire
His portrait paints this sky so vile

Descending cracking bones of fear
'Til now a brave young whip appears
Sharp clear void of scathing rock
The scaled black beast without revere

The valiant warrior rips his chalice
Now huff his mighty milky cloud
Fowl beast be slain from baker's tongue
Man's cotton bow said 'clear his lung'

* * *

His shadow so dark turns to stone
Face of the riders forlorn
Watch as his hatred reigns down now it's known
The only way out is through fire breathing hounds

The black knight breathes fear only one will survive
Unholy angels released from their hive
Begging for mercy daylight far behind
He's watching
He's waiting

Take my knife
Chain my hands
One mighty thrust
End his life

A chalice of blood and an axe weighs him down
Walking the cave where the beast holds his crown
A blade to the heart a way out brings new breath
He will be stoned
Stoned to death


2. CAGED IN FLESH

Drowning fearless dreams of death
Night falls and the sun won't rise again
Dazing into negligence
Never to rise from seas again

Asleep watching lifelessness divide
Empty mind can't escape the highest tide
Transcend taking refuge in the sky
Regress one more fatal evil eye

Planets align
Fierce chaotic oceanic waves crash over my body
Blood gushes from my neck after a final stroke
I killed the kraken.

Carrying my body through the midnight seas
Senseless with fears of awakening
Soaked in sorrow left with no light
Confusion sensation
Empowers what's left of my mind

The slow decay
Rotting my flesh
Curdling blood
My third eye bursts open
Pineal rays of light
Flooding through the night
The soul escapes
From the lifeless vessel
Flying away through galaxies afar
I will live on.

4. WITCHERY

Into the sun
Stare into the void
Stir your death-defying potion
And watch your world turn ill

Stare at the sky
Empty your lungs
Watch your heart turn black
While the oceans collide with the stars

Screaming for more
Lying by death's door
Shouting your psalms
In hopes that your god will relinquish the curse

The healing noose
Wails under cold hard winds
So tempting, foreboding
Hearts so hollow
Witchery
