intro (spoken)
beware the lich yard, of ghosts and ghouls
the secrets it hides attract only fools
beyond its gates the death specter looms
so turn back now, or you will meet your doom
(sung)
go away ‘fore you meet your end
monsters come in the night
don’t delay or they will descend
just to give you a fright
so you better run and hide
if you want to save your lifeline
for the creatures here
assuredly will beat you and eat you
all the warnings have been shared
it’s no wonder that you’re so scared
if you want to stay
better be on your way
delving into the monster lair
given time, you will see
as you push on without a care
you’ll begin to believe
that you made a grave mistake
when you came in before daybreak
this is not a game
the stakes here are of life and your last breath
but you know it ain’t so gross
there is beauty in the morose
if you don’t oppose
might as well listen close
living as undead
it isn’t so bad
not if you look up toward the light
from deep within your home
under the ground
you’ll find everything is alright
so there it is
you have the choice
to stay alive
or use your undead voice
we will abide
what you decide
so take a leap of faith
and live your life
so that’s your call
you choose to fall
just to be born again
and join the thrall
then grab my hand
you’ll understand
now take your place
among the midnight band
(whispered)
+what?+
+who is that?+
+shovel knight?+
+here to defile the lich yard?+
+pray for mercy.+
(spoken)
the reaper has come!
(sung)
those who trespass shall meet their end
only lost souls to call our friends
and the ghosts gathered to descend
to the reaper’s defense!
all the warnings have been shared
and no one can say they’re unprepared
let the enemies of the cemetery all beware
in the legion of the night
we give no quarter lest you run and hide
no pity from those who’ve transcended life
delving into the lair tonight
where memorials twist and writhe
those who oppose shall lose their life
on the edge of the scythe!
for you made a grave mistake
and you will never see the daybreak
for the dead may never rest, but never get to wake
in the legion of the night
there’s no compassion for what was your plight
no pity from those who’ve transcended life
and when the undead hordes
finally put down their swords
you’ll have time to look to the light
and in your burial mound
far deep below the ground
you’ll find that everything is alright
and that’s the plan
that’s my command
old lives are forfeit to the midnight band
so join the thrall
and heed the call
for while you still can choose
you choose to fall
