House of Bones
A Sound of Thunder

Speak to me father from beyond the grave

Come to me mother I have found the way

Here in the darkness where they cannot see

Call on the saints to set the spirits free


Bone, blood, and ash offered to the well

Open the doorway from heaven and hell

Mansions like graveyards, foundations of the past

Death has been turned and life begins at last


Our legacy was buried

Our names unknown

The bodies may be lost

But their souls live on and on

In the house of bones


Deeper through the swampland, there is music here again

Raging from the house built on the backs of stolen men

Blood bound to the earth where bodies lie in unmarked graves

Two hundred years of servitude from the children of their slaves


The house of bones will rise

The voodoo in my blood can’t be denied

The time has come for the servants of the past

To rise again and sing with pride

In the house of bones


Harmless little hexes and a curse upon their name

Their egotistic cruelty was the only thing to blame


A plague falls upon the home and carries loved ones to the ground

The mistress of the house is dragged into the swamp and drowned


The house of bones will rise

The voodoo in my blood can’t be denied

The time has come for the servants of the past

To rise again and sing with pride

In the house of bones


The house of bones will rise

The voodoo in my blood can’t be denied

The time has come for the servants of the past

To rise again and sing with pride

In the house of bones


You know that judgment for your sins will come to pass

And you know the tyranny of greed can never last

You can’t escape the past


The time has come for the lost forgotten souls to stake their claim

Rise above, sing, proclaim

They can never erase your name

Your blood cannot be tamed
