Chapter Four - The Sacrifice

from They Lurk by Godless Angel

/

lyrics

The sunrise
Through blood stained glass
The stillness
The reaper leaves behind
The anguish
Drained by grief he slips into tortured sleep
Raining blood the lifeless eyes and slashing fangs the blade rips through her melting flesh
the echoes of their screams
black
death
savage and merciless suffocating
the boy's bloody corpse it rises
pointing to the derelict structure
there within the darkness
a faint glimmer of light
from the black abyss
a voice calls out
he wakens from the nightmare crying out his daughter's name the certainty that somewhere in the dark her precious soul is still untouched
all is not lost
shaking
bloody
clinging to the remnants
of his ravaged sanity
he stumbles towards
the wretched barn
challenging the sun the hive of evil moans malevolence
the death rattle of the claw scarred doors
from the shadows wicked eyes glare making his skin crawl
his thoughts of storm of fear, sadness, and hatred
and madness
cutting the rope from the tree where they kissed for first time
lost in her eyes that now stare lifeless
he wretches at the loss of everything that ever mattered in his world
he anchors the rope to the tractor where he held her ring in his fingers
thinking of the words to ask her to the spend the rest of her life in his arms
a life now shattered
dreams drowned in blood
did he tell her he loved her
before the darkness ripped her away
the flamethrower strapped to his back he sways before the barn and remembers her heartbeat through her mother's skin
he kicks the doors
summoning
daylight
into the nest of horror
cleansing flame
rips into
shrieking
ghouls of darkness
pushing through
slashing claws
his daughter’s hand
finds his own and grabs hold
throwing her safety
their eyes meet once more
before the claw gashed tank ignites
