lyrics

13th Century
Medieval Bohemia
Legend tells of a gate to hell
Villages in fear, they refuse to venture
Near this accursed ground
In fear of their lives
They claim to hear screaming coming from the pit
And daemons flying in and out of it

Daemons terrorize the countryside
People tired of living in fear

BUILD THE CASTLE
KEEP THE DARKNESS TRAPPED BENEATH
BUILD THE CASTLE
FILL THIS VOID FROM WHICH IS LEAKS
BUILD THE CASTLE
KEEP THE DARKNESS TRAPPED BENEATH
BUILD THE CASTLE
FILL THIS VOID FROM WHICH IS BREEDS

Prisoners were used
For the construction of the castle
Ones that would rebel against
Were beaten and thrown into the pit to their
Deaths! Some complained of being haunted
During the night they are taunted
Some by a headless bleeding horse
And an old hag screeching

Hell and Sin!
We bring upon you
Hell and Sin!
We bring upon you

BUILD THE CASTLE
KEEP THE DARKNESS TRAPPED BENEATH
BUILD THE CASTLE
FILL THIS VOID FROM WHICH IS LEAKS
BUILD THE CASTLE
KEEP THE DARKNESS TRAPPED BENEATH
BUILD THE CASTLE
FILL THIS VOID FROM WHICH IS BREEDS

Overcome with wonder
Of this haunted ground
Their curiosities agree to send a man down
They offer his freedom
If he tells them what he saw
A young man volunteers
Eager to be free of his chains

Down into the pit

The man starts screaming
They pull him back up
His hair has gone white
His skin now wrinkled
Hes aged 40 years
They ask him what he saw
Clearly blind and deaf
He screaming incoherently ...
