Back to the Grave

You thought you left it all behind,
The shadows and the cold,
But every step you take,
The ground gives way beneath your soul.

The whispers call you back,
To where you’ve been before,
You can’t escape the chains,
They’re pulling you down once more.

Back to the grave,
Where the silence reigns,
Back to the grave,
Where the shadows lay.

You can’t outrun the darkness,
You can’t erase the pain,
No matter how far you wander,
You’ll always go back to the grave.

You claw your way through time,
But the past won’t let you be,
The ghosts are always watching,
From the corners you can’t see.

The blood that stains your hands,
It never truly fades,
The curse you thought you’d buried,
Still calls you back to your grave.

Back to the grave,
Where the silence reigns,
Back to the grave,
Where the shadows lay.

You can’t outrun the darkness,
You can’t erase the pain,
No matter how far you wander,
You’ll always go back to the grave.

The earth is cold, it’s calling you,
The grave is deep, it’s pulling you,
You thought you’d rise above the night,
But here you fall, without a fight.

The grave, the grave, it’s where you’ll stay,
No matter how you run away,
In shadows deep, in silence loud,
You’ll lie beneath the frozen ground.

Back to the grave,
Where the silence reigns,
Back to the grave,
Where the shadows lay.

You can’t outrun the darkness,
You can’t erase the pain,
No matter how far you wander,
You’ll always go back to the grave.

The earth will cover what’s left of you,
The grave will hold you tight,
In the end, we all return,
To the endless night.
