|
Underneath the mountainside lies a maze |
|
Of brashly stones, dark and freezing cold |
|
Its secret yet is covered well |
|
And unseen are most creatures dwelling in pain - so they say |
|
Root and tendril twist their way through long forgotten halls |
|
Noone's ever dared to cross before |
|
Memorize your turns, my lad |
|
In case you understand what I am trying to commend |
|
Light is hope and on hope you depend Spying through the darkness: unresting eyes |
|
When I turn around |
|
They vanish all at once out of sight |
|
Still prepared to attack |
|
As they await the fading of light |
|
Clinging to his oil-lamp hard |
|
He moves on for hours |
|
Till he gets sight of an underground-lake, |
|
So calm In its center stands a |
|
Mirror coated with thick grimes |
|
So it is done, unveil the myth of time |
|
Blind with curiosity |
|
He's heading for the isle |
|
Across that narrow bridge, a wile |
|
The sea engulfs |
|
And extinguishes the light Spying through the darkness... |
|
Memorize your turns, my lad... |
|
Crying for salvation, |
|
Efforts in vain |
|
Insanity! |
|
I'm surrounded by the hands |
|
Of endless night |
|
No creatures attack, |
|
Noone beholds |
|
I'm surrounded by the hands |
|
Of endless night |
|
No creatures attack, |
|
Noone beholds |
|
The fading of light! |
