Lyrics
Wraithshadows - Phantasmagoric
(Music/Lyrics by Wraith)
INTRO
VERSE 1:
Above the tarn
Looms the mansion
The House of Usher
Summoned to help
A childhood friend
Some madness afflicts
Enter the house
Dreadful feeling
The Darkness Consumes
CHORUS:
Phantasmagoric
Illuminessence
Phantasmagoric
Sombre presence
VERSE 2:
Greet my old friend
Yet he appears
Sick, nervous, distraught
Soon he reveals
His twin is ill
Death like trance grips her
Try to dispel
The dismal thoughts
The House is alive
CHORUS:
Phantasmagoric
Illuminessence
Phantasmagoric
Sombre presence
SOLO
VERSE 3:
She has just passed
Now we entomb
Lay her in the vault
As the house glows
A storm erupts
A shriek from below
The she appears
In the shadows
As one they perish
CHORUS:
Phantasmagoric
Illuminessence
Phantasmagoric
Sombre presence
