Blood Moon
The forests were slashed and burned
To fight off the black descending on earth
All the watchfires that glowed
Are now ashes that fall like snow
From the beacons no light
The cities fell into night.
And the pall bearers marched
Carrying kings into the endless dark
Mothers tears devoured by the frozen ground
And the war was fought
Stabbing bayonets into the dark
And death was relief for the birds and the beasts
Chasing embers of a dying sun
Blood moon
Blood moon
Blood moon
Black doom
Burning no more
Not flicker of light in the dense pitch of the world
The vultures they fly
Hanging heavy in the lifeless sky
The sound of despair is their only guide
The quest to light the flame
The struggle for a reason
Quiet all the screams
Howling at the blood moon
Blood moon
Black doom
The earth no longer breathes
Frozen dead seasons
Remnants of the trees
Digested by the black doom
Black doom
Blood moon

Ghost Lights
It’s growing darker these days
beaten paths have grown over
darker it grows now
can’t find the way
faint lights appear in the distance
they call and beckon your approach
as night cloaks its getting colder
can’t find the way
in their hands your fate
the Will of the Wisp
they will lead you astray
Will of the Wisp
Don’t follow the light
Don’t follow the light
Don’t follow the lights...
Metacomet is seeking his vengeance
beating wings echo from above
Hell-hounds are prowling this forest
with eyes ablaze
fog seeps around wooded altar
holy ground, blessed, blood-soaked
spirits out searching for the Belt
with eyes ablaze
Lyrics: D.LaVoie, M.Brandi
Music: D.LaVoie, M.Brandi, J.Bridges

Shadowfang
Way down in the hollow
You find me there
Haunted by your lonesome stare
Wandering and waiting
On the morrow
Kissing your tears
Feeding on your fears
Frightened by fangs in my shadow
You run
Hiding in the light til dawn
Scared of the thing you wanted
All along
Hiding in the light til dawn
Memories of the lost
Battles never fought
Linger in the dark halls
In dreams your followed
Cascading down like weeping willows
A darkness that surrounds
It's fingers clawing, calling you out
Frightened by fangs in my shadow
You run
Hiding in the light til dawn
Scared of the thing you wanted
All along
Hiding in the light til dawn
Memories of the lost
Battles never fought
Linger in the dark halls
Phantom voices call
From a past that's dead and gone
And echo in your dark heart
Lyrics: J.Bridges, M.Brandi

Land Gives Way

Land Gives Way
Adrift in Sea of Shallow Graves
Wine-dark recedes to return again
Leaving brackish lines and scarring lives
Blood-blue froth carve your way inside
In Siren's Song, a Perigean Line
Land gives way
Suggesting tails of hands that guide
Land gives way
In Vapor Sea, a voyage blind
Land gives way
Salted wounds from Cosmic Tides
Lyrics: M.Brandi
Music: M.Brandi, J.Bridges, D.LaVoie

Dirty War
There are no good wars anymore
The film stock before
Made softer, the gore
The firebombs in Dresden glowed so much more
Warm
And all the good, brave soldiers
Killed with fashion and fervor
And genocide was a reason
to fight
Now heroes are ghosts
The night in their eyes
Is rage in disguise
Their families are lost
Their glycerine eyes
Give in to a lie
A bullet in the heart
A bullet in the back
A bullet in the heart
A bullet in the back
They're fighting a dirty war
The franchise of death
Sells it to the poor
And stores all the human blood
And keeps it warm
Ooh warm
And all the storytellers
Photographing murder
Cropping limbs for glory and lies
Now heroes are ghosts
The night in their eyes
Is rage in disguise
Their families are lost
Their glycerine eyes
Give in to a lie
A bullet in the heart
A bullet in the back
A bullet in the heart
A bullet in the back
Somewhere there's bullets for us all
Somewhere there's bullets made for hope
Lyrics: J.Bridges
Music: J.Bridges, M.Brandi, D.LaVoie

Pocket Bible
Raise the crosses on the hill.
Slay the aboriginals
Sharp minds now lackadaisical
False light bends their will.
From chariots the highborn glare.
Their soulless glance a vapid state.
False gods, a pointless existence
Unmoved by empty prayers
So c'mon string us up
You fascist motherfuckers
On the cross,
The masses love dead martyrs.
Bleed us thin,
There will always be another
Bleating sheep,
One eye for another.
They'll drink their fill,
While we master how to suffer.
Who's penned in,
when butcher comes to slaughter?
Lyrics: M.Brandi
