Come Down with Us

No wind in this cursed place blows
nothing stirs beneath the evergray sky
a cold that chills the heart and the bone
in these marshes you will forever be alone
in fear and regret your days will end
in the embrace of still water
Come down with us
Come down to the muddy waters
Come here where only serpents and malicious spirits dwell
Come down with us
Come down to the eye of the bog
Come here to the deeper end
and light a candle of your own
Cold be heart, cold be bone
cold be foolish travellers far from home
for they do not see what lies ahead
now that the sun has failed and the moon is dead
Come down with us
Come down to the muddy waters
Come here where only serpents and malicious spirits dwell
Come down with us
Come down to the eye of the bog
Come here to the deeper end
and light a candle of your own
Cold be heart, cold be bone
cold be foolish travellers far from home
for they do not see what lies ahead
now that the sun has failed and the moon is dead
The smoke fills your lungs
just before the final plunge
into the mirky waters
that embrace you on these last moments
Forever here shall your spirit dwell
in the dead marshes forsaken by all life
here your soul will shiver within the mud
and on the surface your fire shall forever burn
