The Nuckelavee

Traversing through pathways on perilous shores
The bogles converge under a moonless sky
The fire in the distance from the eye of the beast bewitches
As it emerges from the womb of night

Hungry, like the bleeding dark
I will speak not of its name

Carving a pestilent trail of the dead
Dripping with poison, a vision of dread
Rattling the heavens, let evil be known
Rising from abyssal waters below
Beware the monster, devil o’ the sea
The nuckelavee

Plaguewielder, deathbringer, protect me lord, o’ mither!
I mean no harm, I mean no harm!
Woe-stricken, yet unyielding, I march into the flame
The vicious chasm of the gaping maw

Hungry, like the bleeding dark
I will speak not of its name

Carving a pestilent trail of the dead
Dripping with poison, a vision of dread
Rattling the heavens, let evil be known
Rising from abyssal waters below
Beware the monster, devil o’ the sea
The nuckelavee

Prayers roam skyward, my cross held high
Claws swing violently like bloody scythes
Black blood courses through yellow veins
Unforgiving is the curse of fate

I have stared into the void, but luck is on my side
Praise be to God for I'm alive

The storm grants me salvation
Rain falls on rotten flesh
A great roar infects the air
With its venomous breath
The crushing din of hooves
Fades into the velvet black
Return to the depths from whence you came
The tale is mine to tell
Defeated, but the devil will be back

Carving a pestilent trail of the dead
Dripping with poison, a vision of dread
Rattling the heavens, let evil be known
Rising from abyssal waters below
Beware the monster, devil o’ the sea
The nuckelavee
