From the Depth of Hades

Glimpse an hidden shadow of mist
Sense a chilling cloak of fog crawling up on your soul
Come forward and step through the gates
Behold the realm of the depths... Hades
Descend down in the abyss
Walk the stairs down to the silent hall
Where the pain cannot be spoken
Where the lies cannot be heard
Before the final punishment is imposed
I stared into the abyss
and it stared back at me
I stared into the Hades
and Hades had me
Keep two coins on your eyes
For the ferryman to be paid in full, paid for your soul
I stared into the abyss
Forget the sunlight
Sail away, across the Styx
Grey despair, eternal mist
Flows of rotten corpses in the stream
So: what is left unsaid…
About the slow march of the dead, going on, heading nowhere
the wicked quest of the damned
eternal and vain
Descend down in the abyss
Walk the stairs down to the silent hall
Before the final punishment is imposed
I stared into the abyss
and it stared back at me
Descend down in the abyss
Walk the stairs down to the Silent Hall
I Walk into the Hades
Now Hades has me
