Bones and Cauldrons
04:18
|

In the night, I was wondering
when I heard the crack of laugh
my senses were attracted
I was fooled by a lie!
I see, demons and witches
Dancing like the flames of fallen star
The chants of the nameless
the portal stands before me as I see
Bones and cauldrons
Boils the spell
Elder ones are coming
They bring the end.
The witches found me
Hiding in a bush
I was fetched in front of them
To join the covenant
There were, demons and witches
Dancing like the flames of fallen star
The chants of the nameless
the portal stands before they are here
Bones and cauldrons
Boils the spell
Elder ones coming
They bring the end.

The Covenant
03:21

I heard the chants; the hymns unveiled that night
I saw it came, out of the portal eye
They laughed at me and cut my chest
It licked the blood, and we were one again
The light of ancient life came to me
My destiny I cannot evade
My blood boiled, my mind saw the space
my body changed I was theirs to praise
My days and nights were never the same
My kind grew as the lust of witches rose
Unholy beings born under blood red moon
They are the scourge that will rule the night
The light of ancient life came to me
My destiny I cannot evade
My blood boiled, my mind saw the space
my body changed I was theirs to praise
we are two in a way I can’t even act
I see the witches come night after night
"The covenant" has been brought to life
"The covenant" is raising its kind
I want my soul to die and rest in peace
Please, give me a chance to die and be free

The Call
04:27

Not so long ago, we could walk without fear
the forest we cherish was a place of light and peace
The Moon of evil whispered words of doom
around a cauldron, they conjured the gloom
We hide in the huts, eyes shut, eyes shut.
Don't look, don't look the strangers pass by
We hold on to the hope deep in our heart
that you'll hear us call.
We pray for a hunter to visit our land
with his swords and spells, ready to fight.
To cleanse all the evil that dwells in the dark, oh! Hunter come by and slay them all.
Nights are longer; daylight is dim
fear runs with the river, tainted with blood.
Birds sing no song; deers have fled the groves, witches all around us, chanting awful songs.
We hide in the huts, eyes shut, eyes shut.
Don't look, don't look the strangers pass by
We hold on to the hope deep in our heart
that you'll hear us call.
We pray for a hunter to visit our land
with his swords and spells, ready to fight.
To cleanse all the evil that dwells in the dark, oh! Hunter come by and slay them all.
We pray for a hunter to visit our land
with his swords and spells, ready to fight.
To cleanse all the evil that dwells in the dark, oh! Hunter come by and slay them all.

The Hunter

As the moon bleeds, and the night is long
the old man asks his apprentice to act
The beginning of his journey through the dark
The first blood of his quest will be tonight
"The portal was opened a year ago
you were not ready, and that's my fault
they grow fast and terrible, ignoring the time of man
now I'm old and weak; I cannot fulfil this task."
The blade, the chain and the morning star
the trinkets, a potion and the old advice
My name is Doom, my voice the spell
My Iron is the sword that cuts your head
By force of will, I will prevail
the wild hunt has just begun.
The hunter arrived at the covenant
he cut his way through the forest of death
the corrupted lair of the witches and the one
was filled with the stench of depraved lust
He slashed some witches and sang the spell
his morning star shining rose the day
his chain bound "The One", and his eyes shone
he didn't fight but spoke the words:
" some of the ones I have engendered, were born
from the mothers of the covenant
be aware of them because they held the power
Of the abyss' warring triad, now let me rest/DIE."
The blade, the chain and the morning star
the trinkets, a potion and the old advice
My name is Doom, my voice the spell
My Iron is the sword that cuts your head
By force of will, I will prevail
the wild hunt has just begun.

The Darkest Dungeon
04:08

The candle's light drawing shadows
The stone walls bleeding tears of pain.
A dark hall call us to try
and leave the castle of doom
The chains rattle on the ground
playing sinister songs for us.
Something is coming for us,
I can hear it growl.
To break out, from this castle of doom
we must fight we have to slash our way through
Stand together and hold your ground
light a torch and keep it alive
foul creatures block the pass
these fiends must be driven back.
A devil walks these halls; only the mad would search for it
be wary; triumphant pride precipitates the most dizzying fall
To break out, from this castle of doom
we must fight we have to slash our way through

Rider in the Night
04:02

Riding in the forest
of mist and omens
the rider finds a path
through Transylvanian land
As fast as he goes now
the night embraces him
while the moons rise slowly
bloody and fearsome
a sound in the bush, a howl in the night
he must find a way before it's too late
red moon, fangs, and death are all around
ride fast and pray for the dawn in Transylvanian land
a silhouette behind
a gargantuan demon
the horse strays in fear
faster than has ever run
the rider fire's he's gun
and grabs his talisman
he promises to never
ever come back here
a sound in the bush, a howl in the night
he must find a way before it's too late
red moon, fangs, and death are all around
ride fast and pray for the dawn in the Transylvanian land
