Feral - Dragged To The Altar lyrics



Tracks



01. Once Inside The Tomb

No longer inside the tomb
Fueled by the dark
Driven to consume
And defile the pure of heart

Impelled to mutilate those who disbelieve
Mangle and lacerate to get my feed

My only goal is to still my hunger
The hunger for mortal flesh
Ingesting living remains
Entirely with skin and bone

Walking again the breathless arise
Dead but no longer inside the tomb

Rotten jaws squeezing through your skin
Payment with death for a life of sin
Death is certain, you await your doom
The undead, they have left their tomb

Ripped flesh spilled on the ground
Spoils of death spread all around

The graveyard's silent just like before
No peaceful rest for the corpse
They have risen from the ground
No one knows that the graves are empty

Once inside the tomb, but I will not return

Impelled to mutilate those who disbelieve
Mangle and lacerate to get my feed
Walking again, the breathless arise
Dead, but no longer inside the tomb

Once inside the tomb

02. Altar Of Necromancy

Bodies collected by the undead
They're dragged to the altar to be revived again
Necromantic powers open their eyes
Feral and sadistic, they embrace the night

Mob of the unliving, stalking their prey
They're forcing the living into digging their own graves
Poisonous fumes emerge from their flesh
And the stench of the holocaust emanates from hell

You're not blind, it's as dark as it seems
Paradise destroyed with dreams
The world has come to end
Run now as evil descends

They're coming for you
They're closing in
Collecting souls
Bring out the dead

Infected with disease you join their league
Standing on decaying legs as one with the decaying breed
They lead and you follow, spreading death's embrace
Killing and reviving for the survival of the race

You're not blind, it's as dark as it seems
Paradise destroyed with dreams
The world has come to end
Run now as evil descends
Beware the power it holds
Strengthens flesh but consumes souls
Beyond death's boundary
Altar of necromancy

Altar!

Altar of necromancy

03. Judas

I lived in peace, in total harmony
Obeyed the law, never did wrong
Always did my share, and never wished ill
What did I do to make you wish it for me?

I don't understand this contempt
What had I done to make you hate me?
Deed after deed, I forgave you all
But that's where I did wrong, you determined my fall

I plan my return to the world
From the fires of hell, I will emerge
And you will fall by my hands
And all who follow you shall share your end

When the time comes I'll be the one
The one who seals your fate
When the time comes I'll be the one
The harvester of death's rotting bloom

Judas! Judas!
You stabbed my back and pissed on my grave
Judas! Judas!
Raping my pride and defiling my name
Judas! Judas!
You stabbed my back and pissed on my grave
Judas!

Your hate brought my life to a sudden halt
But death has given me time to process my revenge
Nothing do you know of what awaits you
A sudden death and eternal torment

The time is here, I'll come for you now
I reappear and hunt you down
You scream in horror as you see my face
I returned from the dead to seek payment for my anguish

Judas! Judas!
You stabbed my back and pissed on my grave
Judas! Judas!
Raping my pride and defiling my name
Judas! Judas!
You stabbed my back and pissed on my grave
Judas!

Your blood quenches my thirst

04. Welcome To The Graveyard

In my graveyard I bury victims
The victims of my wrath
Cemetery in the forest
Hidden from the world

My graveyard, evil place
Ghosts moaning from their graves
Stinking of decay
And the tombstones, ash gray

Welcome to the graveyard!

The graveyard, the possessed
That's where you're laid into rest
And when you're lying on the ground
Then you know that you will never be found

Welcome to the graveyard!

Welcome

Welcome to the graveyard!

05. Howling

I come alive when twilight brings end to the day
That's when I go out to seek my prey

Into the full moon I scream
The sound chills all living beings

Run away, I crave human flesh
You have no chance, the lycanthrope will kill you
Nothing can stop me
Except a silver bullet to my chest

Howling!

I'm an animal, more than a man
Some say I'm Satan's right hand
On a nightly killing spree
When the beast takes hold of me
A child, woman, or man
I don't care, I slay them all if I can
To me they are just meat
Simply made to eat

The moon beckons me to heed its call
I hear its voice and answer with a howl

Run away, I crave human flesh
You have no chance, the lycanthrope will kill you
Nothing can stop me
Except a silver bullet to my chest

Howling!

I'm drenched in blood
I scream out loud
My fangs, my claws
Will be your end

Run away, I crave human flesh
You have no chance, the lycanthrope will kill you
Nothing can stop me
Except a silver bullet to my chest

Howling!

06. The Deathbog

Straying through the night so dark you cannot see
Lost in the waste and the sky never stops to bleed
Soaked in rain, your will starts to fade
The landscape opens and bids you come its way

Reeking of death, it's leading you astray
Submitting to its will, you start to wade

Sinking down into the bog so black
Smothered screams as it sinks above your head

Age old witchcraft and alluring cries
Merged together, sealed your demise
Black bog water filling up your lungs
Another victim taken from the world above

Reeking of death, it's leading you astray
Submitting to its will, you start to wade

Rapidly drowning in the water down below
Ancient demons reach for your soul
Pitch black grave sealed above your corpse
The water lies still and hungers for more

It hungers for more?

Sinking down into the bog so black
Smothered screams as it sinks above your head

07. Graverobber

It started off with Barbie and Ken
I played with them 'cause I had no friends
I sat alone in the dark
That's where my games evolved

My dolls never argue, I can shave off their hair
They don't mind when I cut off their heads
Why bury when you can dress up in someone else's hull?

I go out to find them in the dark of night
Dig them up and bring them to my doll house
I deform and change them as I please myself
All they did was lying there, now they belong to me

Don't you worry, they are put to good use
Used for games, sex, and abuse
In my chamber they are placed to stay
I'm so glad they keep me company

Some look nice with their chests impaled
And they lay still while I fetch the stake
The convenience of they being dead
Could only be matched by a life-size Ken
They're my friends and they play with me
If you try to take them I will make you see
I'm not only capable of stealing a corpse
I'm also willing to make some more

To me it's normal, I've always been like this
But that's how it goes when you give boys girls' toys

It started off with Barbie and Ken
I played with them 'cause I had no friends
I sat alone in the dark
That's where my games evolved
My dolls never argue, I can shave off their hair
They don't mind when I cut off their heads
Why bury when you can dress up in someone else's hull?

08. The Curse Of The Casket

The underground prison
Six feet underground
Not making an effort
To ever get out

Alone with your thoughts in the dark

Lying without motion
Paralyzed
Your limbs are useless
Even if you try

Alone with your thoughts in the dark

It's the curse of the casket
You will never leave it

Your structure starts to rot
Maggots in your brain
But you feel no pain

Dark thoughts of anguish
Run through your head
As you realize
You will never rise again

Not making an effort
To ever get out
Your limbs are useless
Even if you try

It's the curse of the casket

09. Behead The Crucifix

Oh, the reek of your belief
The sign of your savior
A cult of the weak
Slaves to holy labor
Releasing the beast
Strike down your totem
In rage
Directed at the physical

I can't control myself
At night I'm a beast

Behead the crucifix
Behead!
Behead the crucifix
Behead!

Black rites of sacrilege
Defiling the cross
Cover it in excrements
Behead the fucking crucifix

Behead the crucifix
Behead!
Behead the crucifix
Behead!

Behead!

The sun sank below and the creature came out
I lost control, I decapitated your savior

10. Malevolent Summoning

Hard one, release me from this grave
Drag me through the ground, free me from this cage
Gather all your servants and send them to my aid
Have them do my bidding as I lead the way

Crossing the borders of the pentagram
Reigning free again
Restrained by the shackles of life no more
Fully empowered by death

I rise from my grave
Malevolent summoning
I rise
Malevolent summoning

Commence the ritual, anoint my head with blood
Open up your veins and fill my throat with life
No crucifix can stop me, to me they do no harm
No silver rips my flesh and no prayers can hold me down

My eyes are open, my flesh is strong
But in my chest there beats no heart

Crossing the borders of the pentagram
Reigning free again
Restrained by the shackles of life no more
Fully empowered by death

I rise from my grave
Malevolent summoning
I rise
Malevolent summoning
From my grave
Malevolent summoning
Rise
Malevolent summoning
