The Devil's Blood - The Yonder Beckons lyrics

Long have I waited for the hour to strike For the stars to grow tired and fall Since the birth of the Earth have I waited For the sands of its time to run low but tonight I shall wait no more I'm leaving now on a trail to sulphur and salt Yes, I'm leaving to the havens where all things known halt The yonder beckons, the twilight oceans call To forbidden shores I'll set my course I've seen enough of your little world How it helplessly in the darkness twirls But from the roaring depths beyond the known My maker calls, it's time to go I'm leaving now, the sun is sinking in the west Yes, I'm leaving, to hell with all the rest The yonder beckons, the twilight oceans call Towards forbidden shores I'll set my course The winds of Apep are upon my sail From beneath the waves I hear the old ones sing their song And in the distance now the seventh lighthouse burn That is where the oceans end and that is where I yearn There begins a journey long past the seventh and ever on The yonder beckons, I can hear its roaring wail From the starless spheres of nothing Where the serpent lets loose its tail
