Valley Of The Crucified Lyrics - Singles - Akecocke

Slowly drowning in sand 

Dust and death greet you 

In the valley of the crucified 

Survey the slaughter 

Of a hundred score 

Crucified Christians 

Eroded bones of victims past 

Human detrilus scattered 

Skulls crack underfoot 

Aged blood stained and brown 

The dead and the near dead 

The unburiable stench of decay 

Soft grey mouldy flesh 

Dangles from withered bones 

Forsaken sounds from parched throats 

[Solo- P.S.] 

Cracked and arched spines succumb 

To sand scoured days 

Cadavers that fester 

Like rotted fruit on the vine 

This is not Hell 

This is a place like any other brother 

The sins of God and the sins of man 

Their cunting holy trinity 

Slowly forgotten in sand 

The lesser law abideth as the key 

Vessel of holy pain 

Hear me dark ones of the pit 

[Solo- J.M.]
