lyrics

Hearth warm, safe and humble
My fortune flourishing, the land is wet with life
All of this because of me
Because of a promise that I must break

It wanted to save me to save itself
It wanted everything, starting with my eyes

It whispers in the shadows, it yearns for life
Walls of dead stone surround me
The castle echoes with an unsettling fear
They are not safe from this unspeakable madness

That has come to harvest the souls of my promise
The moon strengthens the shadows that linger
The presence of madness and unspeakable horror

One by one, seeds of doubt
Spread through my men and eventually it bathes
In innocence and bile
For it kills without meaning, puppets of the darkness

That has come to harvest the souls of my promise
The moon strengthens the shadows that linger
The presence of madness and unspeakable horror

I stand and watch as all of it crumbles
The staircase dark, cold and inviting
For he whispers and only blood will silence it
I am his wish, his desire
I am his desire
This nightmare resting on my guilt

That has come to harvest the souls of my promise
The moon strengthens the shadows that linger
The presence of madness and unspeakable horror
