On Ancient Ground

On this ground, where ancient spirits once were summoned
It’s said to hold the way to salvation
Demanding chaos, for the unknown times ahead
Where the eldest gathered for sights of the future
Preparing the ritual
…sacrifice
How can they resist these gifts that we give
Our most valuable possesion
Behind masked eyes, material claims
Was not a price high enough for this… sacrifice
In search for better times, adorn gifts from virgin hands
Should be the price to the angelic hoast
Around center stone, they all made the final choice
Prosperity in exchange for blood
On ancient ground — They paid the price
Sacrificial rites, blueprint for eternal life
As the phenom would gather the clouds
Pleasure the Gods, then harvest salvation
Awaiting the feast of the Hunter’s Moon
On ancient ground — They paid the price
On ancient ground — Awaiting the harvest
As the eldest rise, they gathered by
Giving their pray to the ancient ground
A sacrifice, for better times
In order to please the ancient ground
Most precious gifts, they could ever give
To the feast of Gods on ancient ground
They gazed in awe, while soil sucked dry
As the impassive stonehead, demanded more!
Circle of stones, in perfect alignments with the stars
With a gift of life, a passage to the otherworld
Within the enclosure, shines the eye on the altar stone
An instrument to read the signs of the moon
Preparing ritual
…sacrifice
How can they resist these gifts that we give
Our most valuable possesion
Behind masked eyes, material claims
Was not a price high enough for this… sacrifice
On ancient ground — They paid the price
On ancient ground — Awaiting the harvest
…as the impassive stonehead, demanded more!
