Slain Hollow 04:30
Be careful what you say around these parts These locals will tear your soul apart They make the pieces theirs. Let’s hope their gods will care. Just another sacrifice, another heart Be careful when you’re walking by these walls They crumble and there’s nowhere left to run Ive seen them gathering, all pain and suffering Just another sacrifice, another heart Don’t fear us, come join us In the hollow Feel no pain, no sorrow In the hollow Between these walls while sinking down, the sacrificed will make no sound As they reach their endless sleep, only darkness will they see. Don’t fear us, come join us In the hollow Feel no pain, no sorrow In the hollow Don’t fear us, come join us In the hollow Feel no pain, no sorrow In the hollow Between these walls while sinking down, the sacrificed will make no sound, as they reach their endless sleep, only we can set them free credits

Molly Leigh 06:08
These moors have got a story to tell, about a woman and how she fell Her temper raged from a soul that was calm MR Jackson stayed by her side although the parson did cry You stand accused of doing us harm You sent those wings That beast fouls things From your command Molly Leigh you are damned Her time was cut short she died before being tried Her grave was dug before her hands were tied Jackson stayed and the town grew sick With visions of spirits walking out late that warned them of their own fate Blame that woman for this ethereal trick You sent those wings That beast fouls things From your command Molly Leigh you are damned on your way none cried this day as the crow flies another soul dies you’ll find your way as the crow flies You sent those wings That beast fouls things From your command Molly Leigh you are damned on your way none cried this day as the crow flies another soul dies you’ll find your way as the crow flies As the Crow Flies As the crow flies As the crow flies As the crow dies

Welcome to this place, I can see it on your face. You’ve travelled far from home. Come into the heat, go pull up a seat. I’ve got anything you could want. Before I hear the stories you tell, you pay the price in thIs hell Pick your poison Pick, pick your poison Pick your poison So Pick your… Was the promise hard to keep, there’s a dream that all men seek. But find a nightmare in its place. I can fix it if you like but every wish has got its price. You’ll be reborn, you’ll be replaced. Before I hear the stories you tell, you pay the price in this hell Pick your poison Pick, pick your poison Pick your poison So Pick your… The night is drawing in, so let the fun begin Pick your poison Pick, pick your poison Pick your poison So Pick your…

Blood stains on pearly white As the night comes down to block your sight Fear sets in when theres no sound at all Except the howl of the lycan call Opal frames hung by silver chains, Reflect what comes undone when the moon comes up. Empty rooms filled with futile air That’s only used when the blood is still there Burning inside my veins Hunger becomes my name Fear the hunter’s moon. Blood lust takes its toll Your heart stops and your skin turns cold The claws will grip and the fangs will tear Try and hide, there is nowhere Burning inside my veins, Hunger becomes my name. Burning inside my veins Hunger becomes my name Fear the hunter’s moon

Forever 03:59
You’ve been lost, walking circles in the dirt. I was there, watching how you hurt. Standing in the shadows, biding my time. They tell you only god knows but does your god know your mine, forever. Forever, Forever Close your eyes and you’ll be fine Forever, Forever Just say the words and you’ll be mine Forever Dry your eyes, feel some comfort from me now. I was there,I watched you take your final bow. Waiting in the wings, could you see me? The master with his strings, controlling what could be, forever. Forever, Forever Close your eyes and you’ll be fine Forever, Forever Just say the words and you’ll be mine Forever You’ve got to open your heart, place your hand in mine. Forever, Forever Close your eyes and you’ll be fine Forever, Forever Just say the words and you’ll be mine Forever Forever, Forever Close your eyes and you’ll be fine Forever, Forever Just say the words and you’ll be mine Forever
