Abode of Shadows Lyrics


Shun the dark

Flee from the night

But can’t you see

How it follows, always creeping

It nests and builds its abodes

Deeper and stronger, with fortitude

Feeding on fear, shame and pride

Your hands that reach for the Sun

Cast shadows on you brow

Welter in the putrid wounds of yesteryears

Self-conorated with martyrdom

You’ll bury yourself under its crown

And demand for carriers when your knees give in

We gaze in to the abyss

Cowards the beasts, that dwell therein

Them to harness and to rise

Into triumph and despair

But your fate

Is to be succumbed by them

And shed your pain onwards

The cursed bloodline stretches on

The king of misery

Shares his gift of pain

The devils feast on his heart

And worms gnaw his brain
