To venture down where no one's been before
In the allure of the unknown depths
We all heed the abyss' call
A journey that beckons riches, fame and to challenge faith
The entity that shifts in the null
Strings us down when it's already too late
Succumbing to the darkness one by one
40 Days without the warmth of the sun
Leagues of bodies swallowed by the earth
All to challenge mans unbridled curse
With no fear of the unknown tide; the only thing that's alive
The repercussions of our hubris shows in our fate
When it snuffs out the light
Struck by the choice to be made
To cut the lines of these lives trapped down in the endless abyss
Purposed to perish; endless blight
The bodies wavers, devoid of light
Consequence of ambition scorned
Nothing to show, only souls to mourn
Fate struck with the coldest hand
To drown in a crypt of accursed land
For death is above as it is below
The breath of silence released gestures its final blow
Laid to rest
Undone by the final test
