LYRICS FOR "Crypts of Eternity"
Devious to those unknown
Alluring victims to their death perish to the sand
Master of the blackened arts living his decree
Thrives amongst the seven gates searching for the keys
I have seen the darkened depths of hell
Sorcery beyond the witches spell
Robbed the crypts of death's eternity
Killed the priest and cursed him endlessly
Chants of evil incantation fill the murky night
Free the devil's knights of hell unleash their growing spite
Directing power forcibly
Resurrect from crypts of death
I have seen the darkened depths of hell
Sorcery beyond the witches spell
Robbed the crypts of death's eternity
Killed the priest and cursed him endlessly
Cringe with fear
Death will come searching for your mere soul
Still you are eager to seek your fate
All that lie here are remains
Grinding bones
Broken by the lapse of time
Decay to powder
Diminishing
Empty space
I make my claim
Disease engulfs
My kingdom
