[Music: Juha Sulasalmi, Lyrics: Nicke Holstenson] Deep into the forest upon blackened hill Across the cemetery where no one dares go by Beyond the deadly barrier the path continues still One step can be your last think clear or you'll die Yellow eyes glow in the dark evil has you in sight Beware of the swampits it's the path to the unknown Deep down the demons heart... Cemetery of life Buried in darkness, unholy ground Rise the night without a sound Cemetery of life Rotten outside, twisted inside Obsessed bodies that never really died Occult Indian magic ruled centuries ago Rituals took place to bring re-animation Dance around the fireplace chant unholy words Hail Manitou bring the dead to life
Sacrifice to the evil one to satisfy its need Sacred souls will die tonight let the serpent bleed Drink the venomous blood... Cemetery of life Rise from the crypts of darkness Rise from the crypts of the undead The mighty force is now fulfilled as the ritual is complete The moon is full and bright now the dead will see the light Rising from their tombs of d**h they are the living dead The force grant them eternal life to do its evil deeds Hatred burns in their eyes you can not run or hide You realize it's not a dream when hands rip of your flesh In the forest depths the heart of d**h shadows moves and twist They marching out in the world in cover of the mist Cemetery of life...
