Filth to Filth Songtext

von Martyrium

The corridor extended as far as the eye
Can wander in distance
And footsteps carry shadows long
That of cloak and limb
Like echoes in silence
Hind silhouettes under hoods grim
'Ware the eyes who like gems seem to shine

They who holler backward prayers
Sealed in realm from grimoire scrolls
They who marched to reckoning
They who drank from Lake of Souls
They who holler backward prayers

Demons evicted from living souls
Sworn an oath within these walls
Back and forth this cage they roam
Worthy of its darkness were...
