The Gravekeeper's Call

Verse 1 He was a knight, of legend and might, Served a dark lord in shadows of night, But his own blood, in secret they conspired, Left him to rot, in a grave so dire. Forgotten by time, with no name, no stone, Betrayed by kin, he died alone. Yet the earth could not keep him chained, A force unknown, his soul regained. Chorus Now the Gravekeeper walks in the cold, With the weight of vengeance, stories untold. Claiming the souls who dare cheat death, With each step, they feel his icy breath. He’s bound by fate, his duty to keep, No one escapes from the eternal sleep. Verse 2 From the dust and the dark he rose, With hollow eyes and vengeance he chose. His sword, once bright, now stained with night, As he hunts those who hide from the light. A whisper of dread in the midnight air, Where he treads, the cold is there. The wronged and the wicked shall know his name, For in his grasp, all meet the same. Chorus Now the Gravekeeper walks in the cold, With the weight of vengeance, stories untold. Claiming the souls who dare cheat death, With each step, they feel his icy breath. He’s bound by fate, his duty to keep, No one escapes from the eternal sleep. Bridge Beneath the stars, where shadows creep, The Gravekeeper waits in silence deep. His vengeance burns, his heart long dead, But his purpose echoes in the dread. For those who run, their time will end, The Gravekeeper comes, no soul can mend. Verse 3 His kin will know the price they paid, In a grave forgotten, their debts are laid. For every soul he claims with steel, A part of him no longer feels. But justice drives his haunted path, And none will flee the Reaper’s wrath. His name is more than just a curse, The Gravekeeper’s burden, an endless verse. Chorus Now the Gravekeeper walks in the cold, With the weight of vengeance, stories untold. Claiming the souls who dare cheat death, With each step, they feel his icy breath. He’s bound by fate, his duty to keep, No one escapes from the eternal sleep.
