[Intro]
Here is the soul of a man
Here in this place for the taking
Clothed in white, stand in the light
Here is the soul of a man
Time to speak with the shaman again
Conjure the jester again
Black dog in the ruins is howling my name

[Verse]
When the world was virgin before the coming of men
Just a solar witness, the beginning of the end
From a world of magma to a cold rock face

There are stranger truths, immortal lust
The dark redeemer, he takes your hand
You sign the contract and lose your mind

[Chorus]
Reef in a sail at the edge of the world, but eternity has failed
You're waiting in line for the ending of time, but eternity has failed
We are building a bridge so you people can live 'cause eternity has failed
Just a matter of time for my partner in crime and eternity has failed
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Reef in the sails at the edge of the world 'cause eternity has failed
You are waiting in line for the ending of time, but eternity has failed
We are building a bridge so you people can live 'cause eternity has failed
Just a matter of time for my partner in crime and eternity has failed
Reef in the sails at the edge of the world 'cause eternity has failed
You're waiting in line for the ending of time, but eternity has failed
Eternity has failed
Eternity has failed
[Outro]
Good day, my name is Necropolis
I am formed of the dead

By the time I returned to it, I’d already got this idea for the comic series pretty well developed, s...
