about

We hope you feel as frozen and alone as the character in this song when listening

lyrics

he's old
decrepit and grey
frozen entombed
instilled with decay
comes down from the hills
by cover of night
seeking children's flesh
the unholy delight
lurking the cobbled streets
the people hide in the dark
hush their mewling babes
his demon eyes glare through the window panes
ancient tyrant of noble blood
his soul the price he paid
centuries brooding in profane crypt
he returns to rule the land
foul unspeakable fiend
that defiles the holy and pure
usurper thief lord of stygian doom
shrieking maidens rot in his tomb
broken ribs explose his empty eart
skin dried, cracked, cold
pale as moonlight
razor teeth pierce his victim's flesh
walk for eternity frozen and alone
