Rufus Rex: Rise Lazarus Rise

Rise Lazarus Rise
There’s a carrion curse forever haunting our souls
Until the very day we’re lowered in a hole
At Stygian shores we are doomed to run aground
Waiting in fear as the divine spark is snuffed out.

No longer will you wander aimless through the afterlife
With the caress of the casket holding you tight
Were destined for worms when our lives conclude
Last rites be damned, death’s the beginning renewed

Rise Lazarus rise
Rise from the grave
Dispel the sleep
Inside your veins

Rise Lazarus Rise
Rise from the tomb
Regain your breath
Forever exhumed

Death is just the Beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
The epitaph wiped clean
The tombstone ground up
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
No need for eulogies
Hymns never sung

Mortuary science will be forever be eclipsed
Funeral directors deprived of their scripts
Denounce the arcane implements of the past
Now that lifeless actors are no longer cast
The final curtain call fills our body with dread
It’s a shame to expire when we met our end
Cease your offerings for the unfortunate dead
Silence your prayers I’ll give them new life instead

Rise Lazarus rise
Rise from the grave
Dispel the sleep
Inside your veins

Rise Lazarus Rise
Rise from the tomb
Regain your breath
Forever exhumed

Death is just the Beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
The epitaph wiped clean
The tombstone ground up
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
No need for eulogies
Hymns never sung

Death is just the Beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate
The epitaph wiped clean
The tombstone ground up
Death is just the beginning
Defy fate, reanimate

Mortuary science will be forever be eclipsed
Funeral directors deprived of their scripts
Denounce the arcane implements of the past
Now that lifeless actors are no longer cast

Creature Feature: The House Of Myth

The House Of Myth

There stands a dark monument
Born of unfortunate events
A house of myth rumored near
A lost road leading north of here

I tried to warn you, I swear I did!

Tenanted by fear and gloom
Despair calls out from every room
Walls that drip with hopelessness
Filled with an air of malevolence

I tried to warn you, I swear I did!

Abandon hope
All who enter here
Those who ignored
Simply disappeared

They’re gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That’s if they even
Find your body at all

They’re gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That’s if they even
Find your body at all

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

A blackness lives inside this place
An evil you’ll learn to embrace.
It will lure and calm your doubt
Eat you alive and spit you out.

I tried to warn you, I swear I did!

Abandon hope
All who enter here
Those who ignored
Simply disappeared

They’re gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That’s if they even
Find your body at all

They’re gonna have to
Scrape you off the walls
That’s if they even
Find your body at all

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

Inside Of This Place
Death Will Not Come Quickly

It Won’t Leave A Trace
Death Will Not Come Quickly

It Is Much Too Late
Death Will Not Come Quickly

You Have Sealed Your Fate
Death Will Not Come Quickly

All that you will find, is hell waiting inside

Grave Robber At Large!

Grave Robber At Large

There is something strange down by the cemetery
Emptying the graves left and right
Ghastly schemes and ghoulish undertakings
Underneath the pale moonlight

Curse the day they invented the crematory
What a foolish waste of potential sales
It’s a damn shame to discard inventory
Think outside the box if all else fails

Death is my business and business is good!

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Skeletal remains are safe in the ossuary
They’re quite stale and not worth a dime
Don’t think me a fiend, this is strictly monetary
Fortune calls and I’ll answer this time.

In this occupation timing is instrumental
A matter of hours can plummet the price
The fact it’s a crime is simply incidental
Freshness is key, nothing else will suffice

Death is my business and business is good!

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Midnight meetings inside the graveyard
Crunching numbers, breaking the earth
I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty
Even if things seem a bit perverse

Though these deeds weigh heavy on my soul
I will no doubt sleep perfectly sound
While you struggle to keep your conscience
A garden of riches rots in the ground

Death is my business and business is good!

There’s a grave robber at large
Ripping bodies from hallowed ground
Desecrate those who rest in peace
There’s profit to be made from the recent deceased

Death is my business and business is good!

A Gorey Demise

One by one, we bite the dust
We kick the bucket and begin to rust
Give up the ghost when your number’s up
We all fall down
Ashes to ashes, bones to paste
You’ll wither away in your resting place
Eternity in a wooden case
We all fall down
