Thousand Shadows

Shadows crawl

Over the christian kingdom

Shadows crawl, shadows crawl

Shadows grow

In twilight every inch a demon

Shadows grow, shadows grow

Shadows roll

Blacken skies come down

Shadows roll, shadows roll

Shadows growl

Haunt their graveyards with terror

Shadows growl, shadows growl

Cloaked in darkness we wait

Patient, sharpening the blades

To cut and carve our names

In family tree of human waste

And feed all the young

With blood of the days gone by

The day the daylight dies

And the mother of the thousand comes

Oh Black Goat!

Oh thou with a thousand young!

Spread a forest and a desert

Where was history of human life

Shadows foul

Shrouds on daylight the lifegiver

Shadows foul, shadows foul

Shadows own

In end our dust and bones

Shadows own, shadows own

Shadows hold

To the unknown on doorstep of yours

Shadows hold, shadows hold

Shadows stole

What they were yesterday not given

Shadows stole, shadows stole

Leave no stone unground

No door with an unbroken hinge

With every curse a prayer

And with every cut a gift
