Myrryr - Charon's Golden Price Lyrics

Lightning cracks the sky
As I reach through the veil
Waiting for death to take me
Frozen to the bone
The stars are blinding
As I close my eyes to pray
Waiting for Hermes to guide me
As my soul is pulled beneath the leaves
Into the crushing black oblivion
The Earth rises to greet me
My body is shattered on the rocks
But I keep (sinking further down)
Falling, churning, spinning, screaming
For what feels like forever
Through the earth so black and burnt
And when I finally stop falling
Darkness follows and covers me like smoke
As the smoke clears away Hermes stands there waiting
The Shepard of Lost Souls with a Golden Coin
Beneath a giant archway made of stone
Engraved with a hellish warning
"Woe To All Depraved Souls, Who Enter Here"
Charon stares with eyes of fire
And a blackened outstretched hand
The Golden Coin seems so bright
In this dark and dreary place
He snatches it up without a word
Board the boat or be lost
Between two broken worlds
