Lyrics Shadow of the Reaper - Six Feet Under

Shadow of the Reaper

The shadow of the reaper
The shadow of the dead
Entombs the lifeless
The darkest black is cast
The shadow of the reaper
Will you take it’s hand?
The shadow of the reaper
The grave now calls to you
In the cemetery
You have been left unburied
The vultures pick at your eyes
In the cemetery
You have been left unburied
The vultures pick at your eyes
The cold grasp
A bloody hand
The skeleton
It cracks and it’s twitching
Inside of your body
The brain retreats
The heart beats no longer
In denial
Life no longer there
To comfort, to invigorate
To betray you
The rotten now await you
Meet the Devil’s keeper
In the shadow of the reaper
The rotten now await you
To invade you
The shadow of the reaper
The shadow of the dead
Entombs the lifeless
The darkest black is cast
The shadow of the reaper
Will you take it’s hand?
The shadow of the reaper
The grave now calls to you
In the cemetery
You have been left unburied
The vultures pick at your eyes
In the cemetery
You have been left unburied
The vultures pick at your eyes
