Lyrics
Wraithshadows - Nemesis
(Music/Lyrics by Wraith)
INTRO
VERSE 1:
Hear this tale I tell you
Of my sweet revenge
At the spring carnival
I shall lure my prey
Fortunato can you join me
To judge a vintage wine
CHORUS:
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
VERSE 2:
Down we go to the crypt
Smell putrid decay
Crest reveals your grim fate
Reign vengeance down
Fortunato we have arrived
The wine is right before you
CHORUS:
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
SOLO
VERSE 3:
Step into the darkness
Now your bound in chains
Brick by brick your walled up
Scream but none shall hear
Fortunato no one insults
Me with impunity
CHORUS:
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
Retribution strikes tonight
Never shall you see the light
Retribution strikes tonight
Nemesis
