call out to the silent sky
assembled 'neath the moon
(invocation to the elder gods)
ritual of blood now begins
sacrifice of flesh to consume
(arise now in tempestuous rage)
candles lit flicker black
pleasure to rend flesh from bone
(sadistic orgy in virgin blood)
the power builds to a focal point all consuming
destruction of this world as the pendulum shifts
dancing wildly around the fire
blood still caked on maddening grins
(they have achieved pure ecstasy)
within the realms of hidden lore
a secret to unlock the gates
(the blind, mad god emerges)
all hope lost for humanity
hatred has wiped the slate
(awash in the the bloodshed)
