Moss creeps forth

Ancient bones moan

Death creeps in

The marsh weeps in silent song

Death comes singing

A softly blowing wind

Soul relieved from body

My spirit sheds its skin

Flesh formed a new

Amidst the dreary pines

An offering to the earth

Creeping death divine

The decaying bones of earth

Sigh a fragile breath

The rotted flesh of memory

Renewal wrought in cosmic death

Where twilight roams I'll make my grave

Bound in death by the blood of the stag

Bathed in ancient feral rays

As moonlight seeps from opened veins

Dying spell of ancient blood

Awakened from the rotting dust

The forest weeps beneath my flesh

As my spirit sheds its skin

The decaying jaws of earth

Wrapped around my flesh

On warm wind rides

My final dying breath

Repeat

Where twilight roams

I'll make my grave

Forever bound by the blood of the stag
