Bal-Sagoth - Shadows 'neath The Black Pyramid Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I hearken to the grisly murmer of nameless fiends,
  • Black jaws drooling blasphemy,
  • Beyond the witch-song, darkly sweet,
  • The wyrm-horn sounds cross Dagon's mere,
  • Shadow-gate (portal to the Black Pyramid) yawns wide, beckoning...
  • Spells scrawled in blood and frosty rime,
  • Squamous god encoils the onyx shrine,
  • (by the bleeding stone) I am enraptured by ophidian eyes.
  • Pungent odour of engorged flesh,
  • Vaults of eon-veiled horror,
  • Embraced by delerium, witches' balms anoint me.
  • Veils of frost entwine me in the haze of baleful moon-cursed dreams,
  • I hear the High Ones whispering ancient spells in the long-dead tongues,
  • There is the gleam of blackened steel in the flickering torchlight,
  • And I embrace the balm of sublime forgetfulness...
  • By the blaze of the burning skulls,
  • Beneath the Well of the Black Flame,
  • In the vaults of the dreaming gods,
  • Shackled to the slime-smeared bleeding stone.
  • Squamous orbs, black sword, drink deep, blood oath.
  • Supine shapes dancing in the mist,
  • (Serpent-tongued) priestess bares her pale flesh,
  • Shadows crawl to the sundered stones,
  • The Eternal Fiends exult in rapture.
  • Tomb-worms bloat on carnal blood,
  • Trickling onto wraith-carved stone,
  • Dark laughter echoes through the vaults,
  • Black-winged, cruel as envenomed steel.
  • In the Well of Black Flame, squamous shapes writhe,
  • A dark tide of shadows follows me,
  • Ravening fiends unleashed to feed,
  • Incantations pour in torrents from my lips...
  • Wraiths and fiends whirl to my bidding...
  • Horrors 'neath the pyramid.
  • (Lyrics: Byron, Music: Jonny & Chris
