symphony x - king of terrors lyrics
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 h-ll know not my name
i slip away… into black i fade away
terrified – to the left and to the right
spirits of the d-mned, 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 alter
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
spirits of the d-mned, iron shadows cast
hear my desperate cries
shrieking demon – far and wide
praying for this breath to be my last
“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]
terrified – to the left and to the right
hear my desperate cries
spirits of the d-mned, iron shadows cast
shrieking demon – far and wide
praying for this breath to be my last
