"Unchain My Soul" lyrics - DARK FUNERAL

[Intro:]
From tombs of forgotten times
I summon thee from thy sleep
Across the river, ferocious and wild
From the graves and vaults of my thoughts!
From the graves and vaults

I call for you, my brother, let me leave this awful life
And drift away beyond the borders of this realm
You wandered off before me, now come back and pick me up
Unchain my soul and bring me where all light will fade
I cannot stay, I will not wait
I have to leave this world forever, I swear not to return
Behind their masks there stand but slaves and servitude
Was not our trade, so rise and set me free and bring me home

[Chorus:]
So rise from the dead
Release me from this pain
I raise the dead
To unfold the gates to hell

I summon all the forces from the darkness that gave birth
To our existence and lit the hellish flames
We shall stand tall and wander where the heavens cannot reach us
As the path will lead into the dark and cold
We cannot stay and wait, the passage has been cleared
The gates are open, there is no turning back
Those left behind shall die as slaves, as servants of their humble ways
And Satan will be laughing from his throne

[Chorus:]
So rise from the dead
Release me from these chains
I raise the dead
To reclaim my throne in hell

[Bridge:]
And before the rise of dawn
My soul will be free

I call for you, my brother, let me leave this awful life
And drift away beyond the borders of this realm
You wandered off before me, now come back and pick me up
Unchain my soul and bring me where all light will fade
I cannot stay, I will not wait
I have to leave this world forever, I swear not to return
Behind their masks there stand but slaves and servitude
Was not our trade, so rise and set me free and bring me home

[Chorus:]
So rise from the dead
Release me from this pain
I raise the dead
To unfold the gates to hell
So rise from the dead
Release me from these chains
I raise the dead
To reclaim my throne in hell
