Charon

Originally recorded on PKG's The Sea of Problems (2000) Acheron is polluted with the voice of despair The dead pass through with the wailing in the air Eyes that never close are eyes that never see As time stands still in the underworld Eyes never close Eyes never see There's poison in the currents of the River Styx Paved the Gods Patrolled by the Ferryman Charon Charon Deathly still and running cold Charon Charon Collecting and watching is the job of the Ferryman Charon Charon Deathly still and eons old The Ferryman just rows The ghosts of the dead ride and idly wait As they travel through the River of Hate Eyes that never close are eyes that never see As time stands still in the underworld Eyes never close Eyes never see The Charon rules the currents of the River Styx Paved the Gods Patrolled by the Ferryman Charon Charon Deathly still and running cold Charon Charon Collecting and watching is the job of the Ferryman Charon Charon Deathly still and eons old The Ferryman just rows Cruising down the river with a grim visage He's taking your souls to the afterlife Heaven or Hell Flip a coin It's all the same To a being that doesn't get paid by commission He has no mercy You don't pay the fare You're going to wail for eternity The River of Hate The River of Styx The River of Wailing and Forgetfulness You're doing the Charon Boogie You're doing the Charon Boogie for eternity Nick Nunziata - Vocals Stephen Murphy - Guitar, Bass, Backing Vocals Micah Robinson - Guitar John Makarewicz - Drums
