Until the Red of Dawn Songtext
von Astrophobos

Again they met where men still fear to tread,
In the woods where paths have never led.
Priests and elders burning to enact
Ceremonies of an arcane pact.

Nightfall set and so their rite began,
Summoning with hymns preceding man.
With the beating drums euphoria spread.
As the night set in, their hunger raged and so they fed.

Feasting upon human flesh, they fed.

Fed to the screams of their meat
And danced with their deity′s spawn.
Entranced till the red of the dawn,
They fed to the screams of their meat.

To an unknown god they sang their praise,
Remnant of long unremembered days.
Then as nighttime's deepest blackness neared,
Other things from far beyond appeared.


They fed. Feasting upon human flesh, they fed.

Fed to the screams of their meat
And danced with their deity′s spawn.
Entranced till the red of the dawn
They fed to the screams of their meat .

With ravening elation,
With reverence and dread,
They welcomed that abomination.
And so, together, they fed.

Feasting upon human flesh, they fed.

There in the shrine that was built by hands
That long since have turned into dust,
They worshipped with creatures from unearthly lands
And gave in to their blood-soaking lust.

In the night they fed to the screams of their meat
And danced with their deity's spawn.
Entranced till the red of the dawn
They fed to the screams of their meat.


Human flesh.
