Gatekeeper, Three Fold
Darkness feed thy hunger most ancient
Sensing the essence most sought three fold
Doomed are they who suffer banishment
Wretched misery a source of bloodlust

Gatekeeper grant me futile passage
Gatekeeper show me the way through the dark lands

The beast’s ever watchful eyes on the opposing shore
A surge of pain as subconscious is taken over
Ancient duty compels me forward
Falling to the summon of the feared one

Escape is an impossible feat
Three fold swift and three fold punishing
Pathetic cries only succeed to anger
Unknown realm guide me in my torment


Abysmal vastities engulf
Feeling the pain of the wretched
Wade through the river cursed
Such sorrow, such bereavement

Underworld visions of death and destruction bring forth the will to harness life
Hateful existence, survival compelling

The beast’s ever knowing sense on the opposing shore
Desensitization, numb to pain I’ve become once more

Mentally slipping in the face of swelling evil
Nubrious images invade my psyche
River, I involuntarily offer myself to thee
Slip away with tortured souls of yester year
Mentally slipping in the face of swelling evil
Nubrious images invade my psyche

Three fold swift, three fold punishing, three fold swift, three fold punishing

Three fold terror, three fold hatred, three fold vengeance,
Three fold torture, three fold fathomless, three fold fearless,
Three fold knowledge, three fold slaughter

Three fold swift, three fold punishing, three fold swift, three fold punishing

Confront me oh guardian
All fear shed in the river
Have at thee, great obstacle
My escape lies just beyond

Gatekeeper grant me return voyage
This I so boldly demand
Gatekeeper show me the way through the dark land
If conflict arises, so be it …
