[Intro] [Bound in brass... bound in dread...] [Verse 1] An old cabinet bought at a sale Unlocks a dark survivor's tale Bound with brass and filled with dread A lingering voice of the restless dead [Restless dead... restless dead...] [Verse 2] Foul scents of jasmine drift through the hall Silhouette figures creep down the wall Sleep brings no peace when the darkness creeps A heavy weight presses while Kevin sleeps [Chorus / Ritualistic Chant] [Haunting chants, heavy reverb] [Call] Spirit in the cedar, spirit in the frame! [Response] Break the wooden lock, echo out the name! [Call] Spirit in the cedar, spirit in the frame! [Response] Silence in the dark, calling out in vain! [Verse 3] Passed as a gift to an unsuspecting hand Tragedy strikes at the fate's command A mother falls silent, pointing in fear At the mahogany chest that brought ruin near [Verse 4] Locks of dark hair and a coin inside Secrets the wooden doors try to hide Illness and fever begin to grow Rooted in horrors from long ago [Bridge / Hebrew Chant Interlude] [Call] Cleansing in the shadow... [Response] Bind the ancient dread... [Call] Sacred spoken prayers... [Response] Quiet for the dead... [Verse 5] Jason steps forward to claim the prize Studying malice through curious eyes An ancient force stirs within the wood Breaking the calm where the relic stood [Verse 6] Rabbis gather to chant the prayer Cleansing the weight from the heavy air Sealed in the dirt where the shades end Never to wake or rise again [Outro] [Never to wake...] [Never to rise...] [Fade to silence]
