Hebrews 11:40

Masks hanging on the tomb walls
Where the coven grieves
Witches hiding in the brambles
Ground level down where the dry leaves
Blow, and burn slowly
No ground is ever gonna hold me
White candles in the manor, where the curse takes hold
Bodies reassembling down where the worms crawl
Make your own friends when the world’s gone cold
It gets dark and then
I feel certain I am going to rise again
If not by faith then by the sword
I’m going to be restored
Build fires to keep the beacon flashing
Where the earth lies flat
Blood calls to blood as the hours draw down
Invent my own family if it comes to that
Hold them close, hold them near
Tell them no one’s ever going to hurt them here
Steal the treasure and try to leave town
Fight my way back down, don’t want to hurt anyone
Probably gonna have to before it’s all done
Take to the hills, run away
I’m gonna get my perfect body back someday
If not by faith then by the sword
I’m going to be restored
