Harker's Tale (Mass of Death)

Helstar


Harker is my name, to you people I must say 
What I've seen, think of me as mad if you may 
The Carpethion Gothic ruin is alive and well. 
From my clutch I've made my flee 
He lives, the prince of hell. 
His evil scheme has spread the plague that 
Drains you of your life. 
Transforms you into living death as he did my wife 
Listen my friends to my tale (the mass of death) 
One by one he'll own your soul 
Make you the undead 
Thriving in the darkness 
Believe these words I've said 
Legend has it through his heart 
You must drive a stake 
Exorcise him in his sleep 
You must before he wakes 
Destroy him before sunset 
Or more loved ones he will seize 
I dare not join you 
For his fear still lives in me 
Listen my friends to my tale (the mass of death) 
Thunder roared from the pounding hoofs 
The horses lead the black coach 
That brings the demon to the church 
Quick the sun now slowly sets

In silence they gathered 
Around the great box 
The creaking sound as the lid was removed 
The sign of the cross, rosaries in hand 
Placing the host upon his forehead 
Then I heard a hellish howl 
As it burned into his flesh 

Andre solo 

Rising in a vengeance 
The priest was first to go 
Slashing and biting engulfing at his throat 
The holy water useless as well the crucifix 
They all prayed for salvation 
But his words were blasphemous 
A sea of broken bodies marks the spot 
Where he has been 
The bloodless cadavers 
Here sucked dry of their sins
