The Collector ** Image ID #2233404 Unavailable **
Half past dusk on All Hallow’s Eve,
the Collector takes his annual stroll
in search of immortal souls to retrieve
There’s no appeal, no reprieve,
no second chances, no parole
Half past dusk on All Hallow’s Eve
Some may try to avoid this sinister reave,
but it’s an unholy, inevitable black hole
in search of immortal souls to retrieve
Ready or not, it’s time to leave
to settle accounts, to pay the toll
Half past dusk on All Hallow’s Eve
Stop fighting his primacy and just receive,
subjugate yourself before his eldritch control
in search of immortal souls to retrieve
Feel your fragile grip on sanity unweave
as the Collector adds you to his profane shoal
Half past dusk on All Hallow’s Eve,
in search of immortal souls to retrieve
