Lifeslave Lyrics

Under a cold dark moon
The moldy earth it shifts and moves
Shadow figures darting to and from
The dead not known to man has come

Hidden in a cloudy veil
A bloody reflection and deathly pale
Skin ripped and flesh to pieces torn
Clothes moth-eaten worn

Called upon to march again
To raid and slaughter countless men
Dark runes are drawn into the earth
Give life to death, inverted birth

Chains break and fail to matter
Bindings fail and then they shatter
Release the force that was detained
Re-animated, now out to hate

Bound by its master's stake, freed from its cage

Back from grave
To life a slave
Cursed to be undying

Out from the ground
To unlife bound
Forced to keep reviving now

Chosen unwilling by death compelled
Acknowledging the unholy calling knell
March for doom, marching to the blackest dawn
Constrained, restrained made to live on

Bound by its master's stake, freed from its cage

Back from grave
To life a slave
Cursed to be undying

Out from the ground
To unlife bound
Forced to keep reviving now
