SOULFALLEN - To The Wolves At My Door lyrics

rate me

This night I hear the jackals<br />

Baying to a desert god<br />

In the dark the growing whispers<br />

Have begun tearing scars<br />

<br />

The foul breath of Anubis<br />

Breathes fire down my back<br />

And the wolves have drawn nearer, <br />

Begun coiling - for the coming attack<br />

<br />

I yearned to see but my eyes were already crystallized<br />

I yearned to survive but my fears had already materialized<br />

<br />

Like serpents this dark entangles, <br />

Ties me to the soil<br />

And (even) the strangers in my reflection<br />

Have begun to recoil<br />

<br />

I yearned to cry but the waters were already crystallized<br />

I yearned to live but my death had already materialized<br />

<br />

Now the light no longer blinds me<br />

Your dying gods they cannot bind me<br />

And as I exit this human aisle<br />

I greet my hangmen with a smile<br />

<br />

And to the wolves at my door<br />

Prolong this suffering no more<br />

With your fangs come and this strife<br />

And erase my name from the Book of Life
