Lyrics The Unsettling Dark - Martriden

The Unsettling Dark

Exploring the deep, pungent earth
Our minds create images, eyes can’t see
Forced on this road not by destiny
His flames plunge up from below
And we must fly!
Running along the unseen catacombs
The foulest of fears approaching
Deep inside the mountain
We mustered the beast
The foul demon incarnate
A colossus of terror pursues
We cannot get out
We can only run
As exhaustion takes its toll
And the end time for loved ones begins!
Sweat boils as we flee this nightmare
Heralding our doom
Its fiery wings thundering
His presence lying in shadow
The unsettling darkness gives way
To a glimmer of light
Before it makes the final lunge
Entwining us in its fiery ropes
Hurling us into the pit
Hopes leaves our hearts
Some grasp at the walls
Slightly prolonging their doom
All lights that once shone brightly
Dim as we tumble long
Into the dark places of the earth
Falling, forever!
We cannot get out
We can only run
As exhaustion takes its toll
And the end time for loved ones begins!
The shade of malice
Draws ever closer
I bask in its essence
Forced upon this path towards oblivion
I channel the strength of my will
As the black shadow engulfs me
Permeating my flesh
Now, bound my blindness
I suffer alone in the dark
And as hatred
Fills my mind
Lost hope returns through vengeance
Execrations of a mind gone insane
Sullen, I loom forth into the dark
