Read for me the words of the dead Fathers of the dark I stumble forth in misery Read me the words of the dead In darkness I sigh Arrival of the fallen A longing for the heavens A night of burden In darkness I sigh Arrival of the fallen A longing for the heavens A night of burden Remember the fallen See them hang at the gallows Remember the buried Died for their forefathers' sins As I walk, the skies grew black As I stopped and never looked back
For those once loyal...yet so false I sighed again and sealed my lips Let us celebrate the dead Let us celebrate this journey to the end Let me enter the garden of delights If I shall rise from the ashes Bloodstained and hurt The scars – kisses of Judas They have been with me – with me from birth Scream to me the words of the dead Forge the fathers of the dark If I stumble forth in misery I read for you...the words of the dead The words of the dead
