many long years I spent entombed with the dead
I made my home among the bones of those long-past living
and erected a throne of skulls
I wove a cloak from an ancient darkness
and set upon my head a crown of rotted teeth
In deep torch-lit catacombs I wandered aimlessly with the rats
I stripped the dead and hoarded all I found
I ate of my own flesh and drank my own blood
but still I thirsted endlessly and gnawed upon my tongue
my dreams were filled with bright light and I was terrified
then I heard a voice
wake up, oh sleeper
wake up
cast off your heavy cloak and crown
come down from your petty throne
come forth
show yourself
step into the light
