[Verse]
Night swallows the air thick as coal
The sky bleeds red behind the moon's cold hole
Shadows stretch clawing through the trees
Do you feel it? That crawling disease
[Prechorus]
No escape no turning back
The black lanterns light the attack
[Chorus]
Black lanterns rise rise rise
Lighting the dark skies
Black lanterns rise rise rise
Hope withers it dies
[Verse 2]
Wind howls a dirge through hollow bone
The earth cracks open swallowing stone
Wolves cry but they’re silent too soon
Is it terror or the pull of the tune
[Prechorus]
No shelter no saving grace
The black lanterns carve their place
[Chorus]
Black lanterns rise rise rise
Lighting the dark skies
Black lanterns rise rise rise
Hope withers it dies
