Lyrics
"The inquisitorial vengeance had been hurried by my two-fold escape
And there was to be no more dallying with the king of terrors..."
Edgar allan poe -
The pit and the pendulum
I awake - without the sun
Encased in walls of steel
Terror so real - it blinds me
Rancid darkness steals my breath
The pit - on the edge of death
The wells of hell know not my name
I slip away...into black I fade away
Terrified - to the left and to the right
Spirit of the damned, iron shadows cast
Hear my desperate cries
Shrieking demon - far and wide
Praying for this breath to be my last
Awake again - paralyzed
I'm shackled to this alter
Sacrificed to their god
'Inch by inch and line by line'
The blade - descending lost in time
The fiends of doom they call my name
I slip away...into black I fade away
Terrified - to the left and to the right
Spirit of the damned, iron shadows cast
Hear my desperate cries
Shrieking demon - far and wide
Praying for this breath to be my last
Terrified - to the left and to the right
Spirit of the damned, iron shadows cast
Hear my desperate cries
Shrieking demon - far and wide
Praying for this breath to be my last
