lyrics

I was summoned by a long lost friend
through the passing years a disease has grown upon him
He's a prisoner of his mind and i went to his aid
I ride on the dreary path to the great citadel

I approach the door as the rain begins to fall
let in by a servant and led to my friend
alone and cold i see hes not well
He and his beloved sister the last of their kin

Beneath the Citadel
a madness lucks in them
even the most minuscule sound
drives him to panic
and with all the dispair
his sister has fallen ill
and without her there
he'll be trappen within his mind

Theres not much i can do
but simply be there
talk some sense into him
with his bleak dark stare
he sees right through me

I just dont know
how much longer he'll have his sanity
As I sit in my room
I hear a knock at my door
It was swung open in a panic
"Shes dead! My sister is Dead!"

his screams of terror still haunt me to this day
I help him carry her coffin to her tomb
benath the citadel
lit by candle light
he cries to the sky
entombed in a hollow coffin
his madness has overtaken him
and his grief takes his soul
beneath the citadel a madness lurks

Days have past
since he lost her
the rain has not stopped and the house slowly crumbles
he comes to my room
with wide bloodshot eyes
he speaks of a sound lurking beneath
is he crazy? I've heard nothing
perhaps you're hearing the storm
"My sister lives!
We burried her alive
I heard banging days ago but i dare not to speak"

"Oh the horror
can't you hear her cries?
her soul still haunts me"

I run from the madness
and watch the house as it crumbles to the ground
as screams sore out beneath the citadel
