What is it you seek?
There are not but bones you'll find
The stain begins to reek
The soak here comes from many lives
You've missed the massacre
Your experience will be just the same
Become the veilbreaker
Welcome to a brand new kind of hell
Desperate cries from the marsh they call your name
Shrieking the atrocities for which you're not to blame
You've ventured too far for you to turn back now
There is nothing you'll find but the spirits' eternal vow
An endless woe to the ones who trespass here
You walk on blood spilled by those corrupted in fear
The vengeance sought was not intended for you
But you'll find no mercy in these woods your walking through

On the Pukwudgies' Path
04:05
|
|

Gleaming eyes open from all around
Peering from the branches and the stones on the ground
Chittering voices beckon out to you
We can help
You hear them yelp
What shall you do?
You back away
Your body sways as the eyes move closer still
Your nerves are shot
Your heart, it drops and you feel a ghastly chill
Come this way
You hear one say and it steps onto the path
You'd be a fool to follow for you'll face pukwudgie wrath
Pukwudgie
You better get off the path
Pukwudgie
You better get off the path
A frightening mass of fur and spikes extends a wretched helping hand
It promises to lead you out of this cursed place
When you reach out you release a shout as your eyes they fill with dust and sand
This blasted beast has tricked you, fool and threw some dirt into your face
Now you're blind and you will find them play their little games
Sorry you didn't pass on by
Now isn't that a shame?
You're poked with pikes and little knives and they pelt your hide with stones
They stab your skin and kick your shins and try to break your bones
You wipe the crud from your stupid eyes and run as fast as you can
They chase you down, you foolish clown
Was that your only plan?
And when these freaks begin their feast and sink their teeth in your meat
They scatter off when a blazing light radiates unearthly heat

Fire in the Sky
04:37
|
|

A fire that burns beats down on you as you walk the marsh
It moves in impossible ways with a light that's impossibly harsh
It dips through the canopy, setting all the trees ablaze
You'll never escape the reflections of this endless glowing maze
And just as suddenly as the fire in the sky appeared
It shoots into the clouds again and that's just when you hear
A sonic shriek, and the rest of all sound goes dead
And that's just when you realize that the fire burns above your head
So now you start to wonder if it even makes sense to run
You know there's no escape and you tremble
You are stunned
You want to move but it forces you to stay
The light begins to brighten turning night into the day
Your feet begin to lift from the ground into the air
You try to shout for help
No one hears your despair
The world goes white as the fire swallows you whole
This burning sky has sucked you in
No mercy for your soul
And just like that, you awake again
Back on the path
Violated

What creature could make marks such as these?
Hooves pock the earth and slime is smeared on the trees
The smell of sulfur smogs the air and chokes your every breath
Candles flicker through the mist and illuminate true death
Parts of human bodies and those of lowly beasts
Segmented in a warped display in tribute by dark priests
What entity demands this memorial macabre?
Voices chant horrific hymns from figures in black garb
Strange display at the ritual site
Warlocks of an arcane god perform this vile rite
Standing in shock as you witness the great offense
Putrid wisps fog the air like sacrilegious incense
Hesitation betrays you as you feel the searing grip
A phantom claw has seized you, and blood begins to drip down your chest
This branded hand around your neck has marked you as a sacrifice
You'll fulfill their bargain when the master comes to take your life
Dizziness and pain incite your base instinct to flee
You push past cackling sycophants whose faces shine with glee
They wouldn't dare block your escape, for their work here has been done
You know not what awaits ahead. Seek hope, but there will be none
Voices echo behind you as you hurry down the path
Not a chance to catch you breath for fear of their dark wrath
The throbbing scar upon your throat burns of demonic fire
Now listen to the crescendo of the ritualistic choir

Blacker than the shadows, it appears from overhead
Watching thee
Coiled all around the darkened atmosphere
It will feed
It awaits with upmost patience for the perfect time to strike
Slithering
You seek for an escape
You're surrounded by the serpent
Shivering
Reptilian scent overwhelms all your senses
Dried leaves crunch below its immense writhing form
The hiss paralyzes you with a stunning deep vibration
Try to move
Try to flee
Try to scream
You are prey
Shimmering scales engulf you in as it wraps around your thighs
Your clawing nails make not a mark on its blackened armored hide
It crushes the wind from your lungs and you gasp a final breath
Its swallows you completely and you slide towards certain death
You wriggle for your life in this coffin made of flesh
You fester in it's guts, filled with other half-dead pests
Your hands move to your belt, to release your pocket knife
A desperate slice from within this beast has saved your cursed life

The Great Swamp Blight
03:37
|
|

The ground is now starting to freeze
The trees have shed all of their leaves
You've lost all sight of the sun
A return of the restless dead has begun
Their bones break through at your feet
They rise from the muck and the sleet
Soldiers and slaughtered alike
They'll feast on you, body and soul on this night
Bayonets and tomahawks seek your flesh as you take flight
Don't stop if you ever plan to survive this Great Swamp Blight
Rotting horrors of a brutal battle still fight this endless war
Now you find yourself on the front-lines in this clash of steel and gore
Of steel and gore
You witness a copse up ahead
Surprising you've not become dead
You run for the safety of light
Too bad
You have entered the heart of the blight
The veil shifts the world all around
The end, you have finally found
You'll break the barrier for me
We will become one as I inhabit thee
