Under the stone… Beneath the bone… Something is waking… Something unknown… Drum… drum… drum… Black smoke crawling through the trees Cold hands reaching from beneath Moon hangs broken, pale and thin Calling every lost soul in Ash falls softly on the ground No bird sings, no living sound Footsteps circle round the fire Feeding fear and dark desire Hear the hollow Hear it call When the old ones rise The weak ones fall Drum of the dead! Heart of the night! Wake what is buried! Unleash the fright! Stone into shadow! Blood into rain! We are the voices! Calling your name! Masks of bone beneath the moon Dancing to a funeral tune Eyes like embers, teeth like knives Guardians of forgotten lives The fire bends but will not die Black wings gather in the sky From the valley comes a roar Something ancient wants the door Feel the tremor Feel it crawl When the silence speaks It speaks to all Drum of the dead! Heart of the night! Wake what is buried! Unleash the fright! Stone into shadow! Blood into rain! We are the voices! Calling your name! Lead: Who walks beyond the flame? Gang: The nameless! Lead: Who wears the night as skin? Gang: The faceless! Lead: Who beats beneath the earth? Gang: The ancient! Lead: Who comes to claim the world? Gang: The hollow! DRUM — DRUM — DRUM Rise! Rise! Rise from the dark! I heard them whisper in the rain I felt them moving through my veins No prayer can hold them, no chains can bind The dead remember what we leave behind Drum of the dead! Heart of the night! Wake what is buried! Unleash the fright! Stone into shadow! Blood into rain! We are the voices! Calling your name! Drum of the dead! Rise from below! Open the darkness! Let the old spirits grow! Drum it low… Drum it slow… Let the buried kingdom grow… Ash to bone… Bone to flame… The hollow drum remembers your name… Drum… drum… drum….....
