🎵 “The Covenant Bleeds” p2

🎵 [“The Covenant Bleeds” – A Blood Raider Horror Ballad] [Genre: Horror / Dark Ambient / Cult Lore] [Intro – Whispered with distant dissonant strings and ritual drums] In the black beyond the stargates, there are no heroes. Only blood. Only hunger. Only The Covenant. [Verse 1 – Quiet, ritual tone, backed by slow ritual drums and discordant strings] 🎶 In the caves beneath Delve, in the dark of the void, They whisper old names that time destroyed. Crimson robes, soaked in sin, A child cries out as the rites begin. An Amarrian preacher, lost and chained, Drinks from a chalice of lives unclaimed. The Sani Sabik, with blade held high, Say salvation comes when the pure ones die. 🎶 [Chorus – Cult choir with deep drones and Blood Raider children's choir echoing lines in unison] 🎶 Blood is the path, and blood is the key, Blood is the key… To open the stars and set darkness free. Set darkness free… Drink deep, oh faithful, with teeth and tongue— Drink deep… with teeth and tongue… The Covenant bleeds, and the old songs are sung. Old songs… sung in blood… 🎶 [Bridge – Spoken with distorted vox, over sharp string strikes and low rumble drums] They do not pray. They feed. They do not preach. They convert—with knives. The Blood Raiders do not fear death… they drink it. [Verse 2 – More intense, layered with bladed percussion and children whispering faint chants] 🎶 In cloning bays and cryo-vats, They harvest flesh like diplomats. Children born in sacrificial light, Raised to drink, to scream, to fight. They board in silence, no words, no plea, Just smiling fangs and hollow glee. Your pod breaks open—your soul unmade, A gift to their god, with the edge of a blade. 🎶 [Chorus – Full cult choir, Blood Raider children echo, dissonant violins swell] 🎶 Blood is the path, and blood is the key,[Blood is the key… To open the stars and set darkness free. Set darkness free… Drink deep, oh faithful, with teeth and tongue— Drink deep… with teeth and tongue… The Covenant bleeds, and the old songs are sung. Old songs… sung in blood… 🎶 [Outro – Whispered, collapsing into ambient horror textures] You thought they were pirates. You were wrong.They are believers. They are the flood. And one day, when your ship goes cold and silent… You’ll hear them chanting. And you’ll know your blood has been chosen. For the Covenant.
