- - - SERENADE THE HELLBOUND - - -


Ashes shifting across barren lands
On hot winds laced with malice
Uncovering skeletons of the damned

Sinner, thriller, stone cold killer
She stays this feeble heart with raven song
Creature picture double feature
From atop discarded piles of bone

She comes to me on all four
Severed from Heaven’s door
Burning hair and a broken halo
Smoking from the pits below

Witchcraft woven in a tomb of webs
Lo, the demon in the glass
Staring back at me with eyes of the dead

Craven, haven unjust graven
A crucifix hangs in dead air reserved
Hunger, thunder witness murder
Uncovered lullabies we deserve

I come to her like a thrall
On bloody knees and all
Burning soul and a broken halo
Smoking from the pits below

I wait for her at the edge of the void
Her serenade reaches me, ghostly
And sends shivers down my spine
To make me feel dead again, mostly

Smother clovers wannabe lovers
If we could just bleed out in the abyss
Spellbound, ghost town gonna be hellbound
We shall share damnation’s kiss

I wanna be
Hellbound

She comes to me on all four
Severed from Heaven’s door
Burning hair and a broken halo
Smoking from the pits below
