Midnight Ritual
Verse 1:
In the heart of the night, where the shadows fall,
(Whispers of the ancients begin to call.)
By the flickering flames, under the moon's pale light,
(The circle is drawn for the sacred rite.)
Chorus:
Oh, the drums, they pound, like a heartbeat in the ground,
(Chants rise up as the spirits gather 'round.)
In the midnight air, where the secrets are concealed,
(A forbidden ritual is revealed.)
Verse 2:
The elders stand tall, their faces veiled,
(Eyes like embers, with stories they have trailed.)
Hands raised high, to the sky they plead,
(Calling forth the power that their souls need.)
Chorus:
Oh, the drums, they pound, like a heartbeat in the ground,
(Chants rise up as the spirits gather 'round.)
In the midnight air, where the secrets are concealed,
(A forbidden ritual is revealed.)
Bridge:
The wind begins to howl, as the fire starts to blaze,
Echoes of the past break through the night's haze.)
(Voices intertwined, lost in time's embrace,
Dancing with the shadows in a forbidden place.)
Verse 3:
The ritual climbs to its fevered peak,
(Ancient words spoken, the ones they seek.)
But in the darkest hour, a price to be paid,
(For the power they've summoned, their souls have been weighed.)
Chorus:
Oh, the drums, they pound, like a heartbeat in the ground,
(Chants rise up as the spirits gather 'round.)
In the midnight air, where the secrets are concealed,
(A forbidden ritual is revealed.)
Outro:
As the dawn breaks through, and the night recedes,
The circle fades,( leaving whispered deeds.)
In the silence left, only echoes remain,
Of the midnight ritual in the darkened domain.
