A Black Rose 05:41
Beneath the black, deadened trees lies the secret she keeps Her poor sister's locked in the cellar with no air to breathe The spot marked by a rose, haunted still by her ghost But will they ever find the truth that's hidden so deep below? Did it make you feel alive to see betrayal in her eyes? Will you take this rose with petals as black as your soul? Haunted by her screams, a sickening melody It's your own blood staining your hands Do you still see her in your dreams? Please help me to understand Are you afraid of the dark? Do you still hear her heart? Does it hurt you to know you tore your whole family apart? At the dawn of each day, do you wake up and say "I am the killer of Amanda Grey" Was it worth a little fame, a title to your name? Can you live with the pain?

I hear the melody of her screams She lets out a shrill, piercing shriek That echoes through every corner of my skull Her face shines, so brightly As her tears do fall I will rip her poor body apart And feast on the blood she hides deep inside her heart Severing all her limbs I'll push my knives much deeper in I'll steal her skin and wear it as a suit And she'll scream, so sweetly As I drive my blades Puncture wounds in her neck I'll carve off her clitoris and breasts And nail my grisly trophies to the wall All the girls cry when they realize They won't make it out alive
3.
The end is now and we're rising from the dead Worms and maggots now infest the space in our heads We walk upon the Earth to spread our virulent plague It now infects you and you cannot be saved I crawl out from my tomb, so fear my rotting face Break the seal upon this room, my final resting place I surrender my soul To the power of the grave Wreaking destruction as we wake from beneath the Earth Behold the power of our decrepit rebirth Our darkness now afflicts the air in your lungs Spreading death with our razor claws and salivating tongues Surrender to the power of the grave...

They came to me so silently Upon my throat the creatures feast One somber my night, my life they drained All the blood from my veins My skin's so pale as winter snow Eyes cursed with a telling glow I must enshroud myself in night In sunlight, I will die I drink blood To quench my lust These puncture wounds upon my throat Are a clear sign so you know There is no trace left inside Of my mortal life With razor fangs of purest white We take the shape of bats in flight Far across the snow-swept fjords And forests, we soar
5.
Between cliffs and trees, lies a shadowed town Driven mad by dreams to either hang or drown He comes to them in sleep, he leaves no sight or sound A shapeless entity dragging their souls down Hanging from trees like reddening leaves The wind it sways their bodies Take one final leap into sea And lose your life on the rocks beneath When the Sun goes down, and the sky turns black He calls them to come out, where there's no coming back An omen in the clouds as thunder starts to crack A supernal voice, it shouts, a warning of attack
6.
She kidnapped me from my bed And put a burlap sack on my head She sewed my mouth shut So I can't even scream To the floor I've been shoved, as she puts on her gloves I think I just fell in love She chopped my hands off, so I can't grab anything anymore I feel my blood start to pool on the tile floor A new vibration of a buzz-saw cracking my skull No more sensation, the pain has finally made me go numb She put me through Hell and back And stuffed my limbs in garbage bags I think that she might Be the one for me
7.
I hear their voices call from places hidden deep The Great Old Ones awaken, and now summon me The whispers grow louder as each day passes by The Elders shall return, lay waste to human life Risen from their slumber, they roam upon the world To usher in his reign They sleep beneath the sea And when they awake, the world shall bow at their feet The worshipers of darkness gather now, unseen We wake our dreaming master, and raise him from beneath The corpse-city is risen, and he shall now return This world belongs to nightmares, humanity shall burn Lords of eternal darkness Fallen from the stars They sleep, they sleep...
