NoumenoN - The Grim Reaper's Ark Lyrics

In the silence of the night when the stars refuse to shine
The Reaper sets his sail in the sea of the divine
Souls aboard his ghostly ark whispers fill the dark
Bound for fiery realms on a journey stark
Shadows dance upon the waves to the Reaper's solemn tune
The ark glides past forgotten graves beneath the waning moon
No return from this last trip the final port is near
The gates of hell aglow as the souls peer
The air grows warm the sky alight with embers of despair
The ark reaches the shore in the hellfire's glare
The Reaper's work is done as he turns away
Leaving souls at the gates where they shall stay
Where they shall stay
In the quiet of the dawn the ark fades from view
The Reaper's voyage ends as the day breaks anew
But when the night returns and the stars hide their spark
Again he'll guide the lost on his grim ark
