Say your prayers. Say them long and say them often
It walks the streets with us tonight
Don't let the night air go to your head
Or else your bones it will soften
This is a plague of biblical proportions
Cover your face in this world
Everywhere you look death toll is rising
The bodies rot and start to swell
The night air
Don't let it in
Hold your breath
Don't let it in
Streets are filled with wagons piling corpses
Ring the bell, bring out your dead
So many Graves to dig so little time to do it
Light the fires up tonight
No need for suicide, murder, and abortion.
The end is coming just as well.
The stench of death blows in from from all around us
No cures or remedies to sell
The night air
Don't let it in
Hold your breath
Don't let it in
