The King of Terrors
"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
Spirits 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 altar
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
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
Spirits 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 altar
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
