Haunted Halls
Hidden in desolation
A house a crumbling abode
Built seemingly by the hands of a madman
What dwells within
Glass is stained with decades of decay
Cannot see beyond
For no light shines
Into these rooms
A place of shadow
The door is creeping open
Obscurity beckons inside
What wonders await
Within these haunted halls
Welcome to my domain
I get no visitors here
But please do come inside now
I have such sights to show you
No other living souls here
But I am far from alone
Now let me tell you a tale
A tale of madness and horror
Reaper of death
Creating the monstrous
Labyrinth of horror lies within the skull
Into this house
Endlessly building
rooms for the children that call this place home
You do not believe soon you will see
This is not my will but a terrible fate
Lurking in darkness my legacy
Your dreams they fade with waking
My nightmares dwell within
Trapped in a twisted reality
But I must dwell here with them
When I fall to slumber
They claw forth alive from my mind
The years pass like an eternity
So many I have left inside
Within these haunted halls
Clawing for escape
this is my cross to bear
Keeper of countless horrors
Imprisoned in this hell
All that keeps them here
A lonely sentinel
In growing numbers
Seeking for innocent blood
I try to keep them all here
But sometimes one will find the door
And a curse is unleashed upon
The word of man
Legends and Myth
They are all born from me
Now it’s time for the burden to pass
Now gaze upon my creation
And feel your sanity bend
There are far worse hiding deeper
In time you'll meet them
Now I must take my leave of you
It's time for my nightmare to end
Torn apart by my own spawn
As yours is just beginning

Spirit of Desolation

Spirit of Desolation
An expedition into the frozen north
A hunting party, the number four
Two eager travelers, and to each a hired guide
Set out with the coming dawn
Into the woods, they are leaving the world of man behind
Fever of the wilderness is never far
None travel here, but they laugh at the tales of the old
Learned men believe not, in spirits of desolation
Across the river deeper they go
As the day fades away they see nothing
But quiet unease awakes in their hearts
That something lurks beyond the fire
And when the dark is complete
Unease turns to fear
They know they trespass on the ground of the thing
That walks upon the winds
Calling
Howling voice in the air
Into the night
Screams pour from the sky
Oh this great height and fiery speed
Searching in vain the tracks lead to nowhere and
Return to the others
Now again comes the night and something approaches
Awful masquerade
But the flesh is all wrong it hangs on a frame inhuman
Just a trick of the eye
To lure the rest away one by one
A united defense repels the beast into the frozen night
The next day they return to the camp to find only ashes remain

Into Leng
Breaking the laws of nature
And the boundaries of man
Searching for worlds beyond
Then a breakthrough
Opening a new frontier
A doorway to God knows where
(Cold)
Icy landscape stretches out before the eye
(Darkness)
Ominous stars hang strange in an alien sky
(Terrified)
There’s no turning back
(Pressing on)
Into the frozen wasteland
Distant the fires burning
Soon they see they are not alone
Figures dance in rapturous awe
A cry of alarm is sounded the reverie broken reprisal be will swift and violent
For these men are strange
Blood stains the ice as men fall screaming cut to pieces
in shock and horror
The dead flesh they consume
Cut them down and flee, for more will come
To rend them all
Across the mountains into black caverns
Escape the horned ones
For even they fear what lies within
On eight legs of abomination
(Crawling)
Hidden deep beneath the earth
(Hunt them down)
Watching prey through myriad eyes
(Lust for blood)
Exsanguinate
(Deeper down)
The worst is yet to come
Enter a place of madness
Ominous sounds ahead
Massive chamber of stone
On an ossein throne he sits
In robes of yellow the haunting eerie notes
Enslaving the mind
(Now)
Going insane
(Enthrall)
Swaying to horrible sounds
(Beckoning)
Inhuman hands
(Echo)
A voice from within
Now slaves to chaos lost in madness
Screaming horror
Return home and keep open the way
For we will follow and with us those who once ruled this world
Beyond your comprehension
For man is nothing like insects to the beasts of chaos
And we will wipe you from existence

Monuments of Agony

Monuments of Agony
Beneath the surface my secrets lie bleeding
Under the floorboards of my cellar such tragic beauty
A staircase downwards into a nightmare realm
Displays of mangled humans
I built it all myself
I stalk the city streets under the darkness
In search of prey for my museum depraved
Locate a victim Isolated and unnoticed
Move in for the fateful strike
Drugged bound and taken back for pleasure
Or knife the throat a clean kill
A monster under facade of normalcy
The mask reveals the true self
Into my lair my abattoir of gruesome horror
Those still alive witness becoming my creation
Dismember alive or dead it doesn’t matter
Sewn together in a ghoulish mockery of life
So many years so many victims of my art
Hundreds dead and sill they haven’t found me
Far and wide I have traveled to collect my canvas
For display in my gallery of decay
Night is falling again
Rain will wash the blood away
Dreams of rending yielding flesh
A rushing in my veins
Voices inside
compel to murder
Over and over
to carve a new formX2
And now I've found you
with skin so beautiful
My masterpiece
Hear footsteps behind you
Then a rag to the mouth and nothing but black
Awaken in darkness
Tied to a flat surface unable to move
And then a blinding light
And seconds later the pain begins
Fatal surgical savagery
Now
Dislimb and cauterize
Remove the bones a grisly frame
Acts so unspeakable
All anesthesia denied
Blades harvest the splendor within
Realms of pain beyond
Blood opens the gateway to my macabre art
And no one will ever know
As long as I breath you are mine alone
Just like all the rest here Monuments of Agony interred
Now you are complete soon I will kill again
Entombed in glass
The final breath leaves the body
Nightmare flesh twisted horrors are my creation
Cut to pieces and rearranged
In grisly fashion
Torn flesh is reborn
Exhibition, atrocity in flesh exposed
And I hunger for more
