During An Eclipse (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(album: The Opaque Brotherhood - 2008)

During an eclipse
The gates are open
During an eclipse
The gates are open
During an eclipse
The gates are open
During an eclipse
The gates are open

During an eclipse, you can jump through time
Portals to another life are easy to find
Swamp water rises, bodies float to the surface
Bats fly into walls on purpose
Spattered blood, nuns become suicidal
Count down to Armageddon, await the arrival
The hair on a cat's back stands up straight
You think you're ready for it, but you're way too late

When the eclipse hits, ya better give me the slip
'Cause fangs grow past my lips, I get mad hairy and shit
My back splits through my shirt like the Incredible Hulking
Fuck your little chicken coop, it's humans I'm stalking
You can hear me howling at the moon for miles around
The most horrific sound, making your eardrums pound
Blacked out all night to the early morning sun beams
And I woke up butt naked in a pile of bloody leaves

During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open

I'm stuck now, what do I do? My skin's burning and bubbling
Hoping that I can find me a little covering
To hide me from the sun 'cause it just turned black
Like a contact placed in the eye of a maniac
I got an axe and a reason to relapse my reaction to the facts
That you better lock your doors until the sun comes back
You got lucky, 'cause the moon just passed
'Cause I was about to murder that out (Put your lights out)

The moon blocks the sun out, the freaks come out
Litter in the streets up like roaches in the house
And in the middle of the shit I got the [?]
And they dance around chanting as they praying to end
The rituals habitual happens every eclipse
[?] with the blood of the rich
Always praying and looking for a sign of the end
And when it doesn't come, wait for it to happen again

During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open

I'm the eclipse like the fat kid in front of the sun
Stay deep, like six feet, [?] you under the earth
[?] whoever don't wanna die
'Cause when the dark comes, if they living a lie, kiss 'em goodbye
I'm the thirteenth wanted Dark Lotus purebred
With a graveyard of skeletons buried inside my head
In the backyard of my mind, I play with the dead
'Til the eclipse comes, and it's time to bury 'em again

During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
During an eclipse (Hurry up, this won't last)
(Better jump through fast) The gates are open
