Cemetery Ritual
On an eerie and foggy Halloween night
A couple enters a dark graveyard with fear
Hearing noises of a ritual tonight
Knowing that demons and skeletons are near
A sacrifice of a virgin is their goal
The demons hearts are really black as coal
Raising the fierce zombies up, they do attack
The couple turns and runs never to look back
Russell Sivey, Form: Rispetto
The eerie fog is even denser now;
Our couple wander, praying to get home,
But find themselves inside a wizard’s lair;
He’s chanting from a heavy, dusty tome.
He raises rotting corpses, smelling foul;
They grab the couple, bite and tear to kill;
Our heroes die, then hear the wizard‘s voice,
And rise to serve him too, against their will.
