3. Envy Life (4:15)
In regards to the nature used with pacts of magic
Spirits from the vastly deep
Respond the calls from their broken silence
Make sure your reach does not exceed your grasp
All that is to be done before you act
In a pact of invoking spirits from the past
Have you lost your mind?
The dark souls of time
Ending life! Ending life!
They see you calling out their names and getting ready
Chant in darkness shrouding near
Through your virtued youth they'll strike a deal
What's to obtain if no pain no gain?
But to sell your soul you must be insane
Wrote your name in blood and then they came
You're as good as dead
The lost souls of time
Envy life! Envy life! Life!!!
Have you lost your mind?
The dark souls of the time
Ending life!
You're as good as dead
The lost souls of the time
Envy life!
~Oh-oh!~ Come on down to the house of pain
~Oh-oh!~ You hear them calling
~Oh-oh!~ Shouting out their names in vain
~Oh-oh!~ Envy life.!.
In regards to the nature used with pacts of magic

Envy life! Envy life!
Envy life! Envy life!
