The shadow of the reaper, the shadow of the dead Entombs the lifeless The darkest black is cast The shadow of the reaper, will you take its hand The shadow of the reaper, the grave now calls to you In the cemetary You have been left unburied The vultures pick at your eyes The cold grasp, a blood hand The skeleton, it cracks And its twitching Inside of your body The brain retreats The heart beats no longer In denial Life no longer there To comfort To invigorate To betray you The rotten now await you Meet the Devil's keeper In the shadow of the reaper The rotten now await you To invade you The shadow of the reaper, the shadow of the dead Entombs the lifeless The darkest black is cast The shadow of the reaper, will you take it hand The shadow of the reaper, the grave now calls to you In the cemetary You have been left unburied The vultures pick at your eyes
