RAISE THE DEAD

The Skeleton's Chant

As recited by Malifeeshea

Lord of blood

Under six feet of earth an' stone

We awaken

Life given to our fleshless bones

We arise

Clawing through the dirt to reach the full moon

We are the forsaken

Done is our deathrest

Breakin' free from our tombs

With sightless eyes

We heed the summons

Of a living one

With silent cries

We all must answer the call

No mistaken

A master of the spell

has committed the ritual

The living must die

On this night of omens

We will hear the cries

Of men

Women

An' children

Raise the dead

Give their bones life

Raise the dead

On the night that the full moon is high

That

It is said

The living must die
