1. Buried Alive
Clenching my fist I hack at the wrist
not stopping 'til I reach the bone.
If I told you once I told you countless times
not to leave me alone.
Still you turn your blind eyes to me
and the darkness that's growing inside.
Visions of death and the sky turning blood red.
Witness, now, my grim demise.
Broken, bleeding, screaming.
Buried alive.
Darkness never ending.
Buried alive.
Making my home in these catacombs.
My body now broken and torn.
Sit on my throne of corpses and bones,
condemned by the oath that I've sworn.
Broken, bleeding, screaming.
Buried alive.
Rotting. Senses reeling.
Buried alive.
My life a distant memory.
Unlife is all I know.
My time, drowned in heresy
is now moving slow.
Mankind will never comprehend
the origins of fear.
All they know is consequence.
Their end is drawing near.
I now find shelter in the dark.
My flesh, it burns away.
Lepers. A legion of zombies
scatter the charred remains.
My life a distant memory.
Unlife is all I know.
My time, drowned in heresy
forever moving slow.
Moving slow.
Clenching my fist I hack at the wrist
not stopping 'til I reach the bone.
If I told you once I told you countless times
not to leave me alone.
I'm buried alive.
2. To Die Proudly
3. Nightbreed
"You think that when you die you go to heaven. You come to us."
While you sleep, they hunger for blood
waiting in the shadows.
Poised to bring about the misery.
They won't die, they are eternal.
Catch your breath, make no sound.
They've come to make their rounds.
Silence the fear inside.
Clasp your hands, kneel down and pray,
hoping to see another day.
But you know what they've come to do.
Their time is now. No time for you.
Avert your eyes from the shadows.
Cast yourself into the light.
They hang you from the gallows.
Laughing as your life drains away.
Bring your god. Bring your crucifix.
Nothing's gonna save you.
I'll see you waste away in hell.
Now you know what's inside me.
Catch your breath, make no sound.
We've come to make our rounds.
Silence the fear inside.
Clasp your hands, kneel down and pray,
hoping to see another day.
But you know what we've come to do.
Our time is now! No time for you!
Avert your eyes from the shadows.
Cast yourself into the light.
You're hangin' from the gallows.
Your life will slowly fade away.
