Originally released on the Horrorpunk's Not Dead Volume 1 compilation album of horror punk bands from around the world!

lyrics

I kept it in for far too long
Many nightmares have come and gone
Within the dark evil is the same
I cannot sleep at night but I know just what to do
and now I’m writing this in hopes that you can see it through
I’ll have to live with what I’ve done beyond my grave
From this life into the next eternal pain

Light the candle
Light the candle
Light the candle

I can’t help but feel that somethings wrong
Every time I hear the devil’s song
A piece of me is slowly ripped away
This is our legacy and it’s up to me
But I never thought never thought this would be my fate
Tormented by the dead
Weakness running through my veins like a symbiotic death

Light the candle
Light the candle

All along grandfather was the one
He let him in our tale begins
Put the fire to the wick
His deepest shame was in the flame
Never call the phantom by his name

Hidden in a box beneath his bed
I found what he had come to dread
Within the wax uneasy at a glance
I know our legacy and it’s up to me
As the flame is lit
Magic from the wick
I burn the letter as I swear to make it right
Unlike any oath before
Born of the night

Light the candle
Light the candle
Light the candle
