Chapter I: The Ashen Abhorrence Lyrics


The Absence of Thy Prayers

Permitted The Witching Hour

Her Corpse-Pallored Visage

Was Drawn Down

In It's Ghastly Gleam

O' Luna,

Yond Stole Her Lustre from Aurora

A Surrogate Face - Akin To The Oracle

That Seateth Across Me

Reflecting Another Presence

Channeling The Foul Spirit

...The Foul Spirit!

On That Night of Nights

When The Veil Was Appallingly Thin

Cast Odious Utterings

Calls To The Outer Reach

...On That Night of Nights

O' Seer - Writhe!

With Each Pendulum Swing

Thine Eyes Shift Back

In Ashen Abhorrence

Allowing Entrance

In The Chamber Of Darkness Profound

Didst the Devil Smile?

Or Shiv'r Didst I

On This Eve Of All Hallow's

Seeking Infernal Audience

In Flesh Betimes Entwined

On that Night Of Nights

When the Veil Was Appallingly Thin

Cast Odious Utterings

Calls To The Outer Reach



Thus It Spake...

Through Throat Of The Witch

A Gravely Incorporeal Voice

Hests Dictate!

Of Pacts Forgotten

And Deeds Undone

Covenants Blood-Forged

Anon Did Need To Atone

An Unrest That Wouldst Claim My Soul

Lest Appeased Or Banished

No Escape From It's Onerous Toll

From That Moment

I Knew I Was Possessed
