Lyrics
Condemned Yet before I cast the befouled Contents of my mind across the wall I wish to unburden my soul That fateful eve we found ourselves in the shadow of an ivory cathedral Compelled to behold the ghastly grave of a ghoul And extract an artifact In an effort to quell life’s ceaseless ennui We have descended into depravity The abhorrent art of grave robbery Crack the lid, apex of our endeavor Round the neck of this corpse lay our treasure And when I seized the jade amulet it began Echoing through the graveborn mists as if calling from the abyss Distant baying - Colossal entity hellbent on slaying And the foreboding gaze of an unnaturally well preserved corpse A haunting presence of chilling malevolence shattered our solitude night after night Baleful shades, creeping moonlight, and that accursed growl I had an inkling that we were jointly going mad Until the beast reared its loathsome head Bloodcurdling screams shook me from sleep Shreds of my mangled partner littered the streets The assailant flashed demonic eyes and bayed as it took to the sky
