Lyrics

Creeping down the village path to the old stables I tread softly to hide my escape As I approach, I catch sight of a robed figure Standing guard, clad in blue His unsightly corpselike appearance A shock to my feeble eyes For he is gazing directly at me Sending horror down my spine I must run, I must hide To take my horse is no longer an option The moon witnesses all beneath He begins his pursuit at a slow and steady pace His rotten black blade drawn, he croaks out towards the others Thus begins thะต manhunt and I am but the sole prey Pursuะตd through these woodlands with an uncertain fate Crypt walker, night stalker What is this wretched creature I take to the forest path through which I had once arrived Running from this rotten fiend following from behind I am anxious, I am panicked For I am to be butchered if he catches me I must escape, I must run I hear the hooves of horses beating from where I've come They are hot in pursuit, and I am wholly terrified His unsightly corpselike appearance A shock to my feeble eyes For he is gazing directly at me Sending horror down my spine I must run, I must hide To take my horse is no longer an option The moon witnesses all beneath I must stray from this moonlit path For they will surely catch up to me The baying of hounds nearing as they gain ground Scrambling over rocky hills and felled trees In silver light lies a clearing ahead A phantasmal lake lit by the full moon It is frigid, it is cold All that is left is to circumnavigate He trails in pursuit at a slow and steady pace His rotten black blade drawn, he emerges from the forest Partaking in a manhunt but I am the sole prey Pursued through these woodlands with an uncertain fate Worship your purpose A sacrifice to sacrament Slaughter, macabre The glory of the father He walks straight into the lake A ghost bath quite bizarre But the ripples still continue Incessantly pursuing me An otherworldly corpse In the form of man Intending to cut me down where I stand Bubbling from the water Emerging from the lake He resurfaces with that cursed steady gait The distance now closed Unarmed I'm wide open Cornered like a rat Pinned between beast and mountain Climbing my way up this steep mountainside A few feet off the ground but he now looms behind Nearly escaped but not before he starts hacking at me Obsidian slashes skin Splitting my left calf open Second cut, same tendon Adrenaline pumping through me He halts his pursuit to stand behind Gazing up at me as if with mockery Perhaps unable to climb Or expecting my fall from this incline In agony I dig in Perseverant, I'm still climbing Fingers claw, I ascend Escaping over the mountain
