Hour of the Worm - Denial of God

There’s a gate beneath this house

I hear cries and moans at night

Sacrifices took place down there

Their screams echo from the past

Every night

The same dream returns

No guiding light

For peaceful sleep I yearn

When eyes close

A nightmare world unfolds

Like death throes

Hell’s terror I behold

Hooded servants with white faces

Gloating demons from unknown places

Light the candles as the black tide churns

All they bow to the mighty worm

They know I know

They know I know

They know I know

They know I know

Celebrate the hour of the worm

Now the terror begins

I can feel it struggle and squirm

Underneath my skin

At night I can hear it gnaw

Deep inside my head

Oh, how I pray to wake

Oh, how I pray for death

The light of dawn

Is slowly on its way

I am left alone

As black turns to grey

I’m walking in a sweat

Faint stars are still agleam

Something in the bed

It wasn’t just a dream

Celebrate the hour of the worm

The terror never ends

I can feel it struggle and squirm

A pain so intense

An embodied nightmare

His children crawl beneath my skin

Messengers of Satan

Welcome the Devil’s kin
