Deathmarch - Written In Blood lyrics

rate me

Written in blood<br />

(Let it be)<br />

Written in blood<br />

<br />

On the darkest of nights<br />

In a chamber of stone<br />

Gather's round a black altar<br />

Laiden with bone<br />

A group of men robed<br />

Watch with bright eyes<br />

As a beautiful woman<br />

Let's out her last cries<br />

<br />

As the woman in bondage<br />

Is shackled to stone<br />

The men's faces gleam<br />

And she lets out a groan<br />

And from the shadows<br />

A figure steps forth<br />

Bearing a dagger<br />

And a life ends henceforth<br />

<br />

Written in blood<br />

Infernal vocations<br />

An unholy display<br />

Of profane incantations<br />

Let it be written in blood! <br />

<br />

Blood smeared on the altar<br />

Is left to conjeal<br />

And the men draped in darkness<br />

Go down and kneel<br />

Another gift given<br />

And more to come soon<br />

The men ready for hunting<br />

Neath the red moon<br />

<br />

Torches die down<br />

And all fades from light<br />

And the men once again<br />

Embrace the night<br />

They step through the darkness<br />

Over grass and through mud<br />

Their fates shall they follow<br />

As it's written in blood<br />

<br />

Let no man feel safety<br />

For all can be found<br />

Torn from their sanctum<br />

To altar then bound<br />

Remember these words<br />

And remember them well<br />

Treasure your daylight<br />

For at night you're in hell<br />

<br />

When the night sky is barren<br />

Save for a red moon<br />

No man is immortal<br />

That shall be known soon<br />

So close all your windows<br />

And lock all your doors<br />

Though that shall not save you<br />

From the nights horrors
