At Night They Rise From Below The EarthSomething is herePoisoning the very air i breathe The voices of the dead have fallen silent They tremble together in shallow graves In a most profound mystery The foul hand of fate did illuminate me I unearthed texts. I now try to Forget For those who see what others cant see their presence is unbearable Still they cannot fully understand For into the depths of knowledge could be undone But what i've seen. I cant take back To know the presence of the ones who rise from below the earth Now every night i feel their stare A multitude cold lidless eyes A steady pulse at the back of my mind Whispered voices from nowhere Shapeless shadows roam the night A constant feeling of being watched Shapeless shadows roam the night A sudden cold in the room Shapeless shadows roam the night Unwelcome gaze has pierced our souls Ageless terrible hunger awakened In the outmost void Beyond our spheres They gather in mass; Our end draws near There they'll plot our fail And soon they'll rise; in corporal form Whispered voices from nowhere Shapeless shadows roam the night A constant feeling of being watched Shapeless shadows roam the night A sudden cold in the room Shapeless shadows roam the night Hush! Again they are among us A faint sinister choir, gathering strength I fear that the time is fast approaching, One terrible night they'll reach out for us all You may think me a fool, blinded by fear But I know what watches us as we sleep If you could only live one night, through my eyes; You would greet next dawn a different man Broken perhaps - marked for sure, and never once you'd feel alone again... For each night you'd know they rise; In silence under ominous skies out from their realm below our cold and sleeping earth out from their realm below this cold and dying earth Thus I must leave all hope behind Sweet privilege of ignorance |
