Mask of Terror, House of Blood

power metal, speed metal, progressive power metal, brutal death metal, dualing vocals

Intro (ominous choir / distant growls)
Walls breathe rot, the moon hangs low,
A mansion screaming truths untold.
From shattered love and broken screams,
A name is carved in gore-soaked stone.
 
Verse I (brutal)
Rick Taylor walks through shattered dreams,
Concrete fists, a heart in chains.
Jennifer’s cry cuts through the dark,
A pulse of fear, a trail of pain.
Lightning splits the midnight sky,
A relic calls beneath the rain—
An ancient face of bone and rage,
A whispered promise forged in pain.
 
Pre-Chorus (building power)
“Put me on,” the terror calls,
“Wear the wrath the dead enthrall.”
Flesh meets curse, the pact is sealed,
A monster born with wounds unhealed.
 
Chorus (power metal, heroic)
Mask of terror—rise and reign!
Through halls of blood I break the chain!
For love I stand, for love I fight,
I’ll burn this house with savage light!
Mask of terror—hear my vow,
No god, no fiend will stop me now!
Jennifer, I’m coming home—
This nightmare ends in shattered bone!
 
Verse II (brutal)
Beasts crawl out of butchered walls,
Meat and madness, teeth and claws.
Blades of bone and rusted steel,
Every strike I make is real.
Cemeteries breathe and moan,
Pipes drip black, the floors are sewn
With stitched-up screams and splintered lies,
I carve a path where horror dies.
 
Pre-Chorus II (hybrid)
The mask devours fear and doubt,
Turns my heart to war-shocked shouts.
Pain is fuel, my blood is flame,
I swing the axe and curse his name!
 
Chorus (power metal)
Mask of terror—rise and reign!
Through halls of blood I break the chain!
For love I stand, for love I fight,
I’ll burn this house with savage light!
Mask of terror—hear my vow,
No god, no fiend will stop me now!
Jennifer, I’m coming home—
This nightmare ends in shattered bone!
 
Bridge (death metal breakdown)
WEST!
Your science rots, your gods are dead!
FLESH!
Your house will choke on what you bred!
I am the rage you can’t control,
A living curse, a screaming soul!
WEST!
I split your crown, I crack your throne—
Your name erased by blood and bone!
 
Solo Section (melodic lead over blast beats)
(Instrumental fury — soaring lead against relentless drums)
 
Final Verse (epic)
At the altar of twisted minds,
Where stolen life and madness bind,
I stand alone, the mask aglow,
A final stand, a final blow.
Love cuts deeper than any blade,
Through darkened rites and plans betrayed—
With one last scream, the night is torn,
From pools of death, the dawn is born.
 
Final Chorus (expanded)
Mask of terror—fall away,
The war is done, the debt is paid!
Through hell I walked, through gore and fire,
To save the one my heart desired!
Mask of terror—silent now,
I kept my word, I kept my vow!
The house lies dead, the evil’s gone—
But scars remain… I still move on.
 
Outro (soft choir fading into distortion)
In splintered halls, the echoes stay,
A hero forged in blood and pain.
The mask sleeps on, but hears the call—
When love returns…
So does the fall.
