Twilight Fauna - A Covenant Born In Silence

A shadow hides the mountain, a grey haze covers the trail Footsteps of ancestors, who lived to the tell the tale Dealing with the serpent, in the twilight of the dawn There’s blood on the contract, but you can’t make the bargain Sit in the meadow and wonder what you’ve done The demon waits for his toll You wanted to run from this place a thousand times But you’re driven to embrace the fold You hear the scream of the banshee, the beast flies from the trees Flowers wilt in your Eden, you give in to the Earth You wonder if they’ll miss you, or if they’ll even search You reach out to the darkness, you crave its cold embrace You lay in the valley and laugh at what you’ve done You paid the demon’s toll This forest holds the silence of a thousand years And you’re driven to embrace the fold
