I sit in a circle of candles And wait for the blood on my hands to dry At three a.m., the witching hour It's time for a sacrifice The devil is pleased, he stares though the mirror And smiles at my offering The devil is ready, her soul leaves her body To take her to Hell with me I place her exalted on top of the altar This woman that I adore The still-beating heart that I ripped from her chest Lies bleeding all over the floor
3.
Tonight begins the endless season of the witch Self-inflicted are her dreams of darkness Rest assured, she doesn't rest anymore Under the fullest moonlight, heed her calling Up from the depths of her swamp She rises on this evening Banshee's cry, serpent tongue Gnashing teeth, she's screaming She's a sick, evil bitch Caught her curse, zombie witch And I can feel her calling to me A fetid hand emerges up from the murky waters The stench of death and rotted flesh hangs in the air Tonight, she beckons me to her cabin in the trees To cast her undead necromancy
4.
My masterpiece is lying there on the slab In the middle of my scientific lab With my two hands, I built him stitch by stitch Lightning strikes, throw the switch Electrodes are racing, the room starts to shake His eyes, they burst open, the monster awakes He breaks the restraints, even to my surprise Can't help but to scream to the world, "It's alive!" It's alive A monolith of many dead bodies combined Fueled by electrons and a criminal mind He walks through the gates and stumbles outside They told me I'm insane, but they'll see it's alive
5.
I wake up bright and early to the sound of my alarm From a cadaverous sleep My guts are hanging out, and I've got maggots in my arms And I'm dying for somebody to eat I stand next to my window, and I take a look outside And see I'm not the only one who's changed There are zombies everywhere and people running for their lives And flesh, and blood, and delicious brains It's Monday morning of the living dead I look and feel atrocious, and I'm half-asleep It's Monday morning, I don't wanna leave my bed Can I pay someone to do this shit for me? Since I'm dead, I guess I can do whatever I please I think I'll eat my boss to start the day This'll be you too: homicidal, dead, and free Can't beat 'em, so just eat 'em anyway
6.
It's getting late, drawn here by your quiet whispering Up and over the cemetery gates The air is motionless, the caretaker's sleeping soundly And the starlight is just enough Tonight is all we ever wanted Leaning on a mausoleum dreaming They will find you and me howling under twisted trees Dancing 'cause the dead can't hear a thing we say The moon is luminous and overhead Laughing and holding hands through the fields of stones The ravens mourn the passing of the daylight from the shadows And your eyes are all I see of you

about

This demo is the first collection of music that made me feel like I was on the right track. The whole thing was a shot in the dark, and it was written in only two weeks. I didn't even know acoustic horror music was a thing at that point. "Cemetery Romance" was originally a Hobgoblin song, but I thought it would fit better as an acoustic tune. The result was this demo EP, which is, in my opinion, one of the best things I've ever written.
