lords of the ancient herb
modern day alchemists
prophets of illusion
born to the black essence
unholy concontions
potions of evil will
consume the foul nectar
out of the dragons skull
drink the blood of stone
the witches brew
reap what was sewn
we ride the sacred smoke
through clouds of ash
where demons roam
drug of galatic beasts
open the thirteenth door
mystic fungus release
the cyclopean spore
druids of black forest
great monoliths of bone
harvest the funeral crop
dark visions will be shown
drink the blood of stone
the witches brew
reap what was sewn
we ride the sacred smoke
through clouds of ash
where demons roam
we'll fly on the demons back
to ride through necrotic clouds of ash
in unknown realms where reality scars
we'll drink from the blood of stars
