Mystification

Outside these walls Dances the plague All victims fall Within it's wake [CHORUS]: Oh, Prince Prospero All of your dreams Fade with your last dying breath Locked in your palace Safe as it seems But not from The Masque Of Red Death Masquerade ball Morbid the night The Reaper calls Grandfather chimes [CHORUS] The uninvited guest Who mocks the masquerade In guise of wretched death A masque of red decay He passes through the archways Of all the palace rooms The seventh dark and deadly Where the clock strikes midnight's doom Casting his blade The Prince attacks Death shows its face Behind the masque [CHORUS]

Graceful and silent Valley of dreams Marred by war's violence And deathly screams Machines of metal Put to the test Now no survival In The Valley Of Unrest Blood-bath of slaughter Come to this place The Devil's daughter Now shows her face To all the humans Part of this quest No light of wisdom In The Valley Of Unrest Smell of flesh burning Death in the air Phantoms are stirring Mortals beware Murder and torture War at its best Life has no future In The Valley Of Unrest

Among the crypts and grey tombstones The Spirits did appear Where life escaped but not the souls Mortally bound in fear Their voice is like a whisper Appearance brief and fey Visions of holy sinners Not seen by light of day Spirits Of The Dead Holy Fire Burning the brain Crossed with desire Reincarnate They stood before here Now laid to rest Trapped by their own fear To make The Quest [CHORUS]: Spectres climbing through the mist Where the mourners tread Apparitions from the past Eyes now orbs of red They're Spirits Of The Dead Born of The Fire I have come Unto The Fire I shall return Know well thy soul's path Don't bar its way Hell has the last laugh For those who stay [CHORUS] [CHORUS]

A fair and stately palace Gone mad within itself No life around the forest Circling the monarch's realm The curse of generations Upon the Usher clan Turned life to desolation Laid waste to fruitful land Haunted Palace Haunted Palace Sacrificial blood stains The family born to fall Never to break evil's chains Brought forth by ancient call Distortion of the senses Damnation of the soul The palace of the breathless Where death's bell takes its toll Haunted Palace Haunted Palace Destruction of foundations Both of the mind and mass Caused by incantations Of family members past Inner plane disturbance Crumbling every wall Tormented by existence The Haunted Palace falls Haunted Palace Haunted Palace Haunted Palace Haunted Palace

Through the winds of time A poet found The Key To The Elder Rhyme Some call the Song Mystic With tales of gore And terror in the night His words, no more, Have kept me mystified [CHORUS]: An art revealed to no one Some say insanity A lesson from The Baron Master of mystery I'm mystified Shadows of his thoughts Bring horror to the mind Legions of the lost Brought forth by his design Morbid tales unfold That leave thee terrified Poetry of old To keep thee mystified [CHORUS] Macabre words of fear Created in the night Death always so near Manifesting fright In his work I've seen A strange and mystic light His life-long dream Was to mystify [CHORUS] Decadence and suffering Devils in the belfry Art of black arts Summoned by his rhyme Dark and evil madness Induced by his passion For mystification Of the mind Mystify [CHORUS]
