the well of souls

i bind unto myself

today the strong name of the trinity

crypt of despair

the old man is there

forming a circle of magic and prayers

guarding the well

the black hole to hell

its evil must never arise i can tell

holy mission

forever he's sworn

to protect our world from hatred and scorn

he will not fear

though the sabbath is near

twelve strokes for candlemass darkness descends

break the circle and all hell comes loose

the well of souls must stay sealed

ancient force of light against the dark

the well of souls must stay sealed

black wind turns out the candles

the air grows cold and threatening

dark shadows wicked laughter

brings darkness to your heart

behold the goat of mendes

red burning evil eyes

lord's prayer holy water

just faith can save you now

disharmony

satanic serenade

black symphony

a tribute to the plague

the twisted souls awakened by the chanting

unchained at last

rise

they will now rise

a new day's dawn

holy light

sunlight redeems

slays the dark

warms and heals

makes you see nightmares' terror is back in your dreams

sleep well my friend

'cause this tale's now to end

don't believe our world is as safe's we pretend

break the circle and all hell comes loose

the well of souls must stay sealed

ancient force of light against the dark

the well of souls must stay sealed
