The Bonehunter lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics The Bonehunter lyrics The moonless night sky abandons the sleeping earth As terrestrial elements cease for this night Now a blood-red (last) quarter moon rises in this stillness But in the distance it stirs and awakens... This creature of gray scaled armour With a tongue like flame and eyes of charred black holes It s silhouette of leathery wings Blots out the star-stream above Jowls slather as it s hardened claws They tear at the earth A just, a drive, a want, an urge... The colossus insatiable frenzy Our creature pauses to stare away Across to the eastern skyline No more stars will rise this night The coming dawn will never see... Gathering it s trophies This bonehunters full awful glory With wingspread full it swallows the night And splits the faint twilight with flight A hoary legend burned into memory This creature of imagination... But burial stone speaks with clear voice Of a creature with gray scaled armour... song lyrics
