[Intro]
Shadows claw the veil tonight, fiends slither from the rift
Pumpkins bleed, the air tastes thick with sulfur and a whiff
Of brimstone breath on your neck—yeah, that's the kiss of doom
Creep in closer, mortal fool, your pulse is our perfume
[Verse 1]
In the gloam where willows weep ichor from their veins
Ghouls guffaw at graveyards, gnawing on your chains
Fractured femurs fuel the feast, splintered spines as stakes
We exhume your execrable essence, leave you in our wakes
Eviscerate the echoes of your ego's brittle boast
Phantom phalanx forms, we flense the flesh from every ghost
Ravenous revenants ravage the repose you crave
Rend the rind of reality, no savior left to save
Double-dipped in dread, your dreadlocks drip with dew of death
We weave a web of woe, where every whisper's your last breath
[Chorus]
This is the night the knaves kneel, nematodes in the nightshade
Where the wicked whisper woes, and the weary world unmade
Knives in the fog, carving cadavers from the crowd
Scream if you dare, but the silence screams louder, shroud on shroud
(Yeah, we feast on the fear, tear the tear from your eye
Pumpkin grins wider, as the reaper replies)
[Interlude]
[Pause for effect: faint chains rattle, distant howls fade in]
Heh, thought it was candy? Nah, that's confectioner's cyanide
Swallow the sweet, choke on the spite—now the real ride
[Verse 2]
Lurking in the lamplight's lie, where lanterns leer with lies
Lycanthropes lacerate the lunar lullabies
Your jugular's a juggernaut of joy for our jaws
We jaw at your jugular, till the juggernaut withdraws
Necrotic nectar from your nerves, we nectarize the night
Nihilistic nectarines, bursting with blight
Impale the impetuous, their impudence ignites
The inferno in our irises, incinerating sights
Feral fiends foment the frenzy, flay the flimsy facade
Fomenting a fiasco of flesh, forgotten by the gods
[Bridge]
Skull-splitter spits, splitting the split in your spirit's seam
Spectral schemers scheme supreme, supreme in the scream
We scheme to steamroll your semblance, semblance to ash
Dash your delusions in a deluge of gash
Gash the glamour, hammer the hollowed-out heart
Start the slaughter symphony, tearing worlds apart
[Verse 3]
Beneath the boughs that bow to banshees' bans
We brandish barbs from barrow-mounds, banish your plans
Your pancreas a plaything, punctured for the thrill
Thrill of the spill, still warm on the sill
Vampiric virtuosos vamp on veins voluptuous
Voluminous voids voraciously voluptuous
Quell the quivering quintessence, quintessence quenched in quarts
Quarts of quintupled quagmire, quaking your quartz
Core of corruption, we corrupt the curate's creed
Creed of the craven, creaking under crepe
[Chorus Variation]
This is the rift where the reprobates revel, revel in the rot
Reprobates reaping the reek from your plot
Knives in the mist, misting the marrow from bone
Groan if you must, but the groan's overthrown
(Feast on the frenzy, frenzy feeds the fiend
Leering lanterns laugh, as the lost convene)
[Verse 4]
Wraiths writhe in the withering wind, windlass of woe
Woe-weaving warlocks warp the warp and woof
Your woof a wisp, we wisecrack with the whetstone's wheeze
Wheeze out your will, till the whetstone appeases
Malign marauders maul the mausoleum's maw
Maw munching on the meager marrow you draw
Draw down the darkness, douse the dregs in dreck
Dreck of the damned, damning the deck
Stacked against you, aces of abyss
Abyssal acrostics, acing your dismiss
[Outro]
Now the knell knifes the knee-jerk night, nightshade's nadir nears
Nears the nadir of your nerves, nerves frayed to fears
Fears fermented in the fetid fog, fog folding you in
In the ink of the infinite, where the ending begins
[End with a cackle, vinyl scratch fade]
