Through the years I have watched your lives unfold Behind the veils of night The ending is foretold There will be no warning When the blackness comes to take you The eye of terror opens And draws you... Within! Ages pass Change in ways we do not see Forever we are lost In demonic ecstacy Before me the portal opens Calling my name One step beyond the threshold In horror, cry out... MY SOUL IS NOT MY OWN! AAAUUGGHH! Swallowed by the abyss Eternal blackness Open wide the gates Seal... your fate The soul tries to escape But it is caught in a black embrace You are then one who bears the mark Face to face with the gathering dark The dark! Soon time will come for all to be undone Undone! The soul tries to escape But it is caught in a black embrace You are then one who bears the mark Face to face with the gathering dark SWALLOWED BY THE ABYSS! ETERNAL BLACKNESS! Open wide the gates Seal... Your fate! Take one last look at the light Tomorrow there will be no dawn... No dawn! [Solo - Laux]
