Graveyard Witchery

Rites are cast as the fires ablaze by the midnight at the graves

Unholy cult on the graveyard shift - Tonight they raise the dead

[solo: Corpse]

Necromancers of the left hand path are summoned to this mass

They spill the blood upon the graves that evil dead may rise

"Casket legions under the soil - accept this infernal gift

Brake the chains of eternal death and return from the maze beyond"

And the silence filled the air as the moon was turning red

Dead resurrection from the otherside... it truly was

Graveyard witchery - Raise the dead

Graveyard witchery - Praise the dead

Graveyard witchery

Then they heard an eerie voice that whispered from below

Who are the ones that spoke tonight with the language of the dead

Were they the ones that broke the seal which forced us to sleep

Cos now we may return again and reign forever more

Graveyard witchery - Raise the dead

Graveyard witchery - Praise the dead

Graveyard witchery

Unholy, undead - uprising from the grave

Flesh, decayed - black eyes still remain

Ageless warriors from the past, they swore an oath

To shed the holy blood and kill together as one

Unpure, undead - arise from the grave

Flesh, decayed - hatred still remains

Ageless warriors from the past remember your name

Unholy casket legion kill together as one

That is not dead which can eternally lie

Strange aeons dead can't never die

So the dead rose from the grave to serve their infernal needs

Unholy allegiance between the living and the dead... it truly was
