Highgate
Fasterâ?¦footsteps fall upon Swain's lane
Echoingâ?¦the frenzied turn to flight
Aloneâ?¦. Careless youths caution less
Indurateâ?¦the sallow will carries on
Hallowed grounds for a hallowed home
Deep within the Highgate crypt
Privy by a chanced encounter fated by the glimpse
The bitter loss of innocence upon the crimson lips
A year aheadâ?¦the lonely path is tread again
A union madeâ?¦and broken in the night
Fears allayedâ?¦by thoughts of each and future plans
Fears displayedâ?¦as darker thoughts are shown
Hallowed grounds for a hallowed home
Deep within the Highgate crypt
Held in thrall while the sweeter flesh is tried
Filling the warm core with my essence
Always the same, to make a name, the â??othersâ?? came
A trophy of the highest order, to bring an end to the one
The source of all, will not fall, what time itself ignored
The folly of man to hunt a shade within the night
Set to work on a moonlit night
In the haze of a predawn mist
Not a sound but the clanging gate
Swinging free by the northern wall
Fire in the night!
Lesser ones are put down
As further into the crypt they seek
With no sign and the thickening smoke
They retreat to seal the way
Buried within the vault!
Fresh walls of cement and kneblasch permeate
Premature satisfaction as the hunters���they abate
Known to me alone this manse of mine and all its ways
A safer route free from taint and burning rays
Safetyâ?¦deep within barren soil
Deeplyâ?¦. dreaming of the next embrace
Castledâ?¦ and always one move ahead
Huntingâ?¦ the hunters using them as pawns
Hallowed grounds for a hallowed home
Deep Within the Highgate crypt
Privy by a chanced encounter fated by the glimpse
The bitter loss of innocence upon the crimson lips
