lyrics

Don't be so trivial
You're face to face with death
I'll show you miracles
But your mind will never rest

You say you want the truth
About what lies beyond
I left a word for you
You'll use it before long

Shake the hand that shakes the world
All hail the Crimson King
Serving the Outer Dark
Infecting everything

Come fire, ice, and blackness
This universe must die
There's such delicious madness
Waiting on the other side

The number I have offered
Will drive your mind insane
You can't resist this word
I've buried deep inside your brain

Nineteen, the cursed number
Key to the afterlife
Tormenting you in slumber
Temptation twists the knife

Now it's coming out like vomit
Nothing you can do to stop it
Sacrifice your sanity
For morbid curiosity

Say the word and watch it crumble
Thoughts reduced to burning rubble
Use your final lucid breath
To beg for mercy; beg for death

Shake the hand that shakes the world
All hail the Crimson King
Serving the Outer Dark
Infecting everything

Come fire, ice, and blackness
This universe must die
There's such delicious madness
Waiting on the other side

All hail the king
Beyond religion
I promise you this tower will fall

All hail the king
Draped in crimson
And we'll bring darkness to them all

"Tell me, Sorcerer... what do you see in the cards?"
"Death... but not for you, Gunslinger."

Shake the hand that shakes the world
All hail the Crimson King
Serving the Outer Dark
Infecting everything

Come fire, ice, and blackness
This universe must die
There's such delicious madness
Waiting on the other side

about

THIRTEEN GOATS Vancouver, British Columbia

This ain't your dad's death metal, but we kept the best parts. Eclectic, over-the-top, and just a little weird, THIRTEEN GOATS takes cues from some of extreme metal's most infamous names (Death, Carcass, Cannibal Corpse) to create a tongue-in-cheek blend of different genre hallmarks that's as hooky as it is heavy. Horns up. ... more
