lyrics

Here I find myself, engulfed in silence
Surrounded by granite, isolated in darkness
Torches illuminating passages that are
Indistinguishable from one another
Patience dwindling, sanity fleeting,
Hopelessness setting in

No!

I have come way too far,
To let myself die
And all my promises be broken and turned into lies
But like the ghouls I have defeated
Doomed to wander these halls
I’ve become enslaved by a puzzle that I just can’t solve

All these tiles are coalescing
Taunting me from every side
I recognize this very structure
I swear I’ve passed it twice this time

Seamless repetition, looping hallways only lit by flame
This labyrinth must be overcome, lest my efforts be in vain

Trapped beneath
Devoid of light
In stone and silence
I proceed forthright
Corridors stretch
An endless span
And as I progress
I’m still where I began

Disembodies whispers echo
The unfeigned sneers of death are these,
Enchanting bones with its dark magic
To rise, now my enemies
I draw my sword to quell this evil,
I stab and slash while time feels still,
Yet I leave behind no traces,
Remains vanish after every kill

As my foes are disintegrating
One by one they leave behind
Gold and gems arranged in piles
That I gladly take as mine

This outcome is repeated, they die and magically are set ablaze
Embers dim, and I’m alone again to navigate this maze

[Internal Guiding Voice:]
Look deep within
Think where you’ve been
Behind each wall
Expose what’s hidden

I hear a familiar voice
To help me find my way
So I can make it out alive
So I can live to see the day

I’ll retrace my steps
To find what I missed
The clues are right in front of me
I must expose what’s hidden

The answer was not to keep pushing on
Rather I must go where I’ve already gone

Secrets line these catacombs
My exit must be drawing near
But I find these walls are empty
As ubiquitous laughter bombards my ears

(Vocals and lyrics by A Challenger Approaches
Featuring additional vocals by Muffin (from Muffin & Cupcake) as the Internal Guiding Voice)
