Satan’s Hallow - Beyond the Bells lyrics

When the piper plays the tune As waves reflect the silver moon A swell of cries rolls with the tide And crashes to the shore A harmony of sleep reborn The hungry, sick, and battle torn Laid out to rest and so are blessed And lost forevermore You’ve chosen black, I’ll go with white If I can play to win, oh, will I steal the light? But I don’t know, you seem too sure In your eyes I see that d**h is waiting for its turn The pieces on the board they feel so smooth Raise up your withered hand and make your move Aghast as visions fill your mind You take another sip of wine So ill at ease as memories seem fictional, almost And if too soon my soul is won And if I never see the sun Rise up again, my brethren Still keep me in your hearts Another knight, another pawn It won’t be long until the final piece is drawn I feel you stare, it burns like ice But in the end I know we all must pay the price The pieces on the board are now but few With one last strike you make your final move You will never know when it is time for you Beyond the bells, into the hells of heroes, saints, and fools You will never know what lies beyond for you If only to be crystallized into something new The time has come for you, my friend Your journey has come to an end So hark the Devil’s angels sing Or will they? No one knows A destiny you can’t avoid Your spirit slips into the void Then s**ed away without a trace Into the great unknown Just one more night, let me fight on I see the starless sky give way to my last dawn With noble form but all in vain There is no victory to lead me from this game “And wish, so please my sovereign, ere I move What my tongue speaks my right drawn sword shall prove” You will never know when it is time for you Beyond the bells, into the hells of heroes, saints, and fools You will never know what lies beyond for you If only to be crystallized into something new You never know
