Grave Digger
If you thought I was evil
Before
Once upon a time
I was an old man
Working late at night
I used to be a grave digger
Looking for treasures
Mementos of the fallen
The silver gold and brass
The wealth of all the souls
Who have passed
Will be mine forever
The frigid dusk had settled in
And the moon was shining bright
I toiled away to
Dig Dig Dig
Those treasures were nearly mine
The mud was frozen solid
But my shovel had struck wood
The casket started shaking
The dead inside were screaming
Rise up
From the dead
We're coming back tonight
Rise up
From the dead
We are the revenant
You will not take away
What belongs to me
We're left here to decay
Just leave us to our peace
The deeds throughout my life
They're coming to haunt me
The dead beneath me rise
They're coming to hurt me
The fortunes I seek
The treasures I hold
They're not mine to cherish
These feelings I have
These memories I hold
They're coming to kill me
The dead they will rise
Once I realized I was a dead man
Fresh meat for the dead
I knew I had to find a way
To stop the masses from
Summoning these creatures
From six feet underground
I must return their treasures
In the same place they were found
Rise up
From the dead
We're coming back tonight
Rise up
From the dead
We are the revenant
You can't just run away
You're welcome to stay
You might rot and decay
Before you get away
The deeds throughout my life
They're coming to haunt me
The dead beneath me rise
They're coming to hurt me
The fortunes I seek
The treasures I hold
They're not mine to cherish
These feelings I have
These memories I hold
They're coming to kill me
It's too late to walk away
These defiled souls are here to stay
They will haunt you 'till you die
There's no way that
You can survive
The air stands still
As we're ready
To rip your face apart
You're fucking heartless
The time has come
To start running
Face to face I see their grins
Lipless snarls as it begins
Pleas of mercy all denied
All the treasures cast aside
Screams of terror fill the night
Wails of pain from their delight
The night is silent once again
As their revenge comes to an end
The deeds throughout my life
They've all come to haunt me
The dead within me rise
They've all come to hurt me
The fortunes I sought
The treasures I held
Were not mine to cherish
The feelings I had
The memories I held
They've all come to kill me
Before
Once upon a time
I was an old man
Working late at night
I used to be a grave digger
Looking for treasures
Mementos of the fallen
The silver gold and brass
The wealth of all the souls
Who have passed
Will be mine forever
The frigid dusk had settled in
And the moon was shining bright
I toiled away to
Dig Dig Dig
Those treasures were nearly mine
The mud was frozen solid
But my shovel had struck wood

Rise up
From the dead
We're coming back tonight
Rise up
From the dead
We are the revenant
You will not take away
What belongs to me
We're left here to decay
Just leave us to our peace
The deeds throughout my life
They're coming to haunt me
The dead beneath me rise
They're coming to hurt me
The fortunes I seek
The treasures I hold
They're not mine to cherish
These feelings I have
These memories I hold
They're coming to kill me
The dead they will rise
Once I realized I was a dead man

Were not mine to cherish
The feelings I had
The memories I held
They've all come to kill me
