Ashen Blood

Colossal footsteps upon the ground May  this night finally end Hide  in brick and hear the sounds of their wreaking breath Sinking fast in this pit of despair, their claws scratching at my door Get out, get out, this can’t be real I  only want to ignore Pray  to gods that hate the living, tell the children good night The dark ones come when they get hungry Spread  your wings and feel the bite The fog sets in, creeps under my skin The night turns cold The blood begins

There's eyes everywhere They’re  lookin' at me Hungry  with malice Mouths filled with disease I'm not of this earth I’m  not of your breed Open  your mouth and devour me Why live another day on earth?

I creep up the path Feet  heavy with guilt I  know it can’t last This temple I’ve built She calls to me In  the shadow of the dead tree The  moon shudders Shakes away silver embers My  fingers are twisted by time I feel terror creeping through my veins, and weeping The insects are in my mind Burn away ‘Til  so grey I feel it now, that evil grove I see its face, it stands alone The night is long, the bark is black Those days are gone, no turning back
