Down in a Foggy
Graveyard
Down in a foggy graveyard
Where me and my fate did meet,
The bones that I was a-sorting
They then started to creak
One was all mangled and covered in grime
Next to an altar that glows,
And there It twisted into a foul form,
Beyond what mortals should know.
Then, I started to stagger
And flee o'er to the door,
I fell, and started to shiver
There on the cold, cold floor
I wanted knowledge to see
What mortals could never be,
If I could only peer beyond the veil
With the Charnel Fragments Plea
And now I lie afore what I seek
Its eyes, a void, do scry
And now within the altar's red glow,
My mind - It starts to pry
I attempt to hum a gentle hymn
Though hell I never shall see
For I have only peered beyond the veil
With the Charnel Fragments Plea
Down in a Foggy Graveyard
