Welcome young traveler You dare come alone Through darkness and the storm that whips you still come to my home You say misfortune’s brought you here a tale I've heard before I’ll give you all that you could ever want and supply even more Grief, what a curse An affliction I've rehearsed An insatiable thirst the likes of which only grows As I drain the blood forth from your virgin throat So, draw your last breath, prepare for your rebirth Bound by black I am forever As the undead, the loss of life is my endeavor A taste of their blood, we’ll rule together Two souls entwined in darkness, spreading fear throughout the land By the shadows I’ll make them suffer Tormented by unrelenting dreams of creatures in the night Bound by black I am forever Cursed to be forever more Arise, It’s time we feast upon their flesh Ripping apart all signs of life, leaving no one left behind In due time, as we become one you will don the family crest Bloodthirsty hunters infamously feared, so equally revered Power, so great the cost unknown to mortal man Required to wield such an evil force takes heavy sacrifice With a, frozen smile accept my offering Pay with your life Bound by black we are forever As the undead, the loss of life is our endeavor A taste of their blood, we’ll rule together Two souls entwined in darkness, spreading fear throughout the land By the shadows we make them suffer Tormented by unrelenting dreams of creatures in the night Bound by black we are forever Cursed to be forever more

Bring forth the prisoner Read aloud her crimes She struck a deal with the devil In exchange for power Slaughtered our children Bathed in their blood By night she soars on the wind Searching for her prey Blackened the wings of creation fell Plunging her into madness Living a life steeped in sin For your crimes you’re sentenced to die Baptized in the fires of hatred She made a pact with Satan himself To gain the knowledge of eternal life The price of which she paid for with our blood Paid for with our blood Time has come to hang this foul creature from the gallows Practicing black magic goes against the will of god Cleanse her soul with fire The only way to free ourselves, from the shackles of the witch Burn For the sacrifice of your humanity You will suffer, for all eternity A crack of thunder, what went awry They looked in horror as crimson red rained from the sky You’ve all been cursed by the blood moon And with my final breaths your fates been sealed so welcome to your doom A crack of thunder, what went awry They looked in horror, as everyone began to die We’ve all been cursed, we’ve all been cursed We have been cursed by the blood moon

A once peaceful village on the outskirts of the woods Is now under attack, by monsters too hideous to describe They came for our flesh (Oh what can be done) These quaint dirt roads now echoing in despair Monstrous roars filling the silence in the air Frozen by fear, we can’t help but stare Our live are ripped away from us, tear by tear We stand defenseless, loved ones torn away We stand defenseless, our precious town in disarray Alchemical horrors composed of mud and stone Tearing our flesh from the bone They came from a distant unknown What kind of black magic dragged these creatures up from hell An evil most hideous trapped us within their spell The first law of alchemy, equivalent exchange We are the victims sacrificed for a ritual deranged

Come one come all to the greatest sideshow in the world Guaranteed to blow your mind Endless performances to feast your eyes upon All of your dreams and desires made flesh Here at our empire of entertainment your ultimate pleasure Feeds our souls Get yourself lost within visual ecstasy Boundless attractions prepare for the ride of your life Plenty delicious treats to sink your teeth into Once you have one taste, you’ll never be the same Settle down Cast away your fears Take a drink Let your mind wander free All together Everyone here is a part of us now Our lives taken a part of their grand masquerade Souls doomed to march forever in this wretched parade Our lives taken a part of their grand masquerade Souls doomed to march forever in this wretched parade And as you arrive, there's a warning to keep you away They’ll come for your life it's all a disguise A twisted charade The sound of saws splitting the air A deafening omen of our despair Lost forever In sea screams our lives they won't spare On your flesh we will feast and live forever These blackened carnival grounds stained with blood Of our victims no chance of escape No final retribution Prepare to die!

Fast approaching the enemy is within our sights Ready the cannons, fire until every last one has died Begging for mercy with their dying breath Jumping to the seas to end their suffering By land, we’ll march taking all in our path Leaving a trait of cutthroat men in our wake The storm we create with our steel unmatched We unleash hell on earth in the name of the sea We have forsaken All who stand to oppose We have forsaken So, kneel and surrender all that which you own Lay the anchor we’ve reached the target destination Raise your cutlass slaughter all those who stand in our way Your cries for help will go unanswered We kill for endless wealth to one day live like kings Endless torment and ruin we fly The black jolly-roger an omen of death On the horizon no hope to survive There's nowhere to run No where to hide We have forsaken Infinite power behold We have forsaken Surrender your body we’ll spare you your soul By the power of the devil We’ve been condemned To live forever but to never feel again Our crimes to be paid in full With our eternal suffering By the power of the devil We will kill without repentance

Mankind in ruin Land under siege Attacked by unearthly creatures from the seas Waging a war Against all humanity For years they’ve waited deep in slumber near our own earth’s core And from the depths they came The planet sent to reclaim From all the pain caused by our own kind And all the fury that they reign To rid the world from Humanities stain we claim If you are there please hear our plea Unending horror rises from the sea and they have taken everything God end this suffering Harbor us from destruction Or is this our damnation Bow to your new gods (For we shall not be stopped) Nature reclaims all life (and we cannot be stopped) To restore balance We have been sent Now kneel down before us For your greed you will repent And from the depths they came The planet sent to reclaim From all the pain caused by our own kind And all the fury that they reign To rid the world from Humanity
