[Verse 1]
The book of the dead is found last
My first smile since that fateful blast
As I walk this left hand path
I see horns I've seen in the past
This beast holds the book in his grasp
He gives a look that shines like a flash
One wrong move and I'll feel his wrath
He says “Why do you take this chance?"
“I want d**h inside my head
Once they died I tried instead
Again and again, again and again
No matter what I do I live in the end
You see my pain don't pretend
I want to come meet my end
I have no more fight my friend
Take these rules and make them bend”
He says "You come here on the brink
You and your race are about extinct
Walk in here treating me like a shrink
Didn't you even stop to think?
Why would I even help you or your kind?
Back in the day you had no time
You blamed me for the hate and the lies
Now you think that we'd be fine?”
"I beg of you to hear my plight
Do your best to make this right
I'd do anything to take my life
Let's strike a deal before tonight"
“This is something I will grant
But you know if I shall cast
I need a soul to make this last
And restore this all from the past”
How could I object with nothing left to lose?
This and this alone is the only thing I choose
He might start the fire but I had lit the fuse
Escaping this world is all that's in my view
I look across the room and the man he looks amused
I'm the only one that is left for him to use
I don't feel abused, my dream is coming true
How would you react if this was happening to you?
I nod my head and step on the altar
From these plans I never would falter
Steady mind, Rock of Gibraltar
As he covers me in a crimson water
Breath draws slow, I begin to pant
He burns clay in a long aged lamp
Sigils mark the ground like a stamp
He slices my hand, it feels damp
Around his knife my hand slowly clasps
The blood flows out down the altar's ramp
My eyes roll back in the aftermath
I lose myself as I hear him chant
[Interlude by The Wickedest One]
[Bridge]
Just like that he's gone
Necronomicon
I'm alone, absolved
Of immortal bonds
I can now move on
To the great beyond
At my own resolve
I will face this god
[Outro]
Voices call from the front of the cave
They run approaching me at the stage
They look at me with with terror and shame
When they speak up they exclaim
We saw you and your devilish friend
Come with us, don't pretend
Magic brought us to this end
And before us you shall descend
