The Bonehunter lyrics

The moonless night sky abandons the sleeping earth
As terrestrial elements cease for this night
Now a blood-red (last) quarter moon rises in this stillness
But in the distance it stirs and awakens...

This creature of gray scaled armour
With a tongue like flame and eyes of charred black holes
It s silhouette of leathery wings
Blots out the star-stream above

Jowls slather as it s hardened claws
They tear at the earth
A just, a drive, a want, an urge...
The colossus insatiable frenzy

Our creature pauses to stare away
Across to the eastern skyline
No more stars will rise this night
The coming dawn will never see...

Gathering it s trophies
This bonehunters full awful glory
With wingspread full it swallows the night
And splits the faint twilight with flight

A hoary legend burned into memory
This creature of imagination...
But burial stone speaks with clear voice
Of a creature with gray scaled armour...
