The Nameless City lyrics

Song information

Artist: Equinox Ov The Gods
Album: Where Angels Dare Not Tread

Lyrics

Pale shines the moon above me
It lights my way through the desert night
How much further do I have to wander?
How much more must I sacrifice?

Mentioned only by the mad one
The nameless city - shunned by all
What awaits I can't imagine
In my thoughts the poet's words I recall:

"That is not dead which can eternal lie
And through strange aeons even death may die..."

The wind... unspeakable... so cold... so cold..
A presence... in the dark... the wind... it tears my soul

Behind the walls... underneath the towers..
Of this cursed city... the horror I faced..
Beyond belief... I stared into the abyss..
The labyrinth... the tombs of glass..
Twisted and grotesque... the demonic corpses
They looked at me... with empty eyes..
And I swear... and I swear..
I saw them move. the mad poet..
His words... "that is not dead..."
