| The expedition began at midnight
|
| The torch-lit courtyard deathly still
|
| What lies beneath the befouled cathedral?
|
| Secrets only the dead will tell
|
| A blood moon looming above
|
| As they scale the iron gate
|
| In search of opulence
|
| But only madness awaits
|
| Shattering the stained glass window pane
|
| Three thieves make haste inside the halls
|
| Below the altar lies an entrance to the crypts
|
| Downward they proceed, their avarice will doom them all
|
| Eerie clouds cut across the moon
|
| Like razors through an eye
|
| Descending ancient stairways
|
| In search of where accursed treasures lie
|
| Scouring tenebrous rooms
|
| In frantic pursuit of the luminous tomb
|
| The glow of their torches growing dim
|
| Lost in underground chambers deep within
|
| Faced by a maze of unknown pathways
|
| Cryptic corridors on every side
|
| Trapped within this never ending labyrinth
|
| A foul presence lurks where the shadows hide
|
| I see the light up ahead
|
| The radiant vault is in sight
|
| The thieves shamble onward
|
| Through passages blacker than night
|
| As their smoldering torches burn out
|
| The glimmer ahead fades away
|
| The luminous tomb 'twas
|
| But a cursed mirage
|
| Drawing them deeper and deeper
|
| Inside of the maze
|
| Trapped forevermore
|
| In fathomless catacombs
|
| Three forsaken souls
|
| Damned to roam in
|
| Darkness eternal |
