[Verse 1: BADMiND]

You're walking down abandoned sanitarium corridors

Cries and whispers faintly echo throughout the wards you explore

Grime-covered toys on the floor

Of one room and a small crevice you can see through to the next

Freshly mahogany scented coffins followed by a unique succession of imagery

Metro PD on the scene of a gruesome discovery

Thought you knew it was a dream and not some great premonition

Flickering lights in the basement ignites your intuition

You should instinctively recognize the sinister creature lying in wait

Seeking to traumatize non-believers

Still, you brave the shadows, thrusting a lantern into the depths

Challenging all the potentially scarifying effects

Crest-fallen statues presumably marble invocations

Function as subpar cruel avatars of a god forsaken

Ancient terror you'd awaken

Through the markings on funeral carvings embedded with a dark incantation

Regarding your fate after you've read it


[Chorus: Labrythine]

Wake up (Wake up)

Ecaps dna nevaeH fo gnik eht

Ssentsav fo noitadnuof eht ,lla fo redael

Wake up (Wake up)

Rorret fo rehsiuqnav eht ,esproc fo revomer

Reyortsed cinap fo rotaerc eht

Rotcive wollahs eht

Wake up (Wake up)

[?htorihpeS] fo gniK fo nos

Ssyba eht fo naidraug eht

Ssenkrad fo ratla eht fo dog

Wake up (Wake up)

Snoisnemid fo drol

HaoN retaerg

Sterces eht fo naidraug

Lebal eht fo drol

[?silopolageM] fo slegna eht fo rotsap


[Verse 2: Labrynthine]

Now tell me, now tell me who heeds before me

Do you understand what it is that you seek?

For all this knowledge are you willing to bleed?

To witness power, are you willing to see?

I cannot be seen with eyes unwilling to dream

He will not be heard unless you're willing to scream

The fabric of space and time falls apart from the seam

Now tell me, now tell me who dares to try to awaken me

For disturbing my sleep, your death I will bring

No angels here to save you, I have clipped all their wings

Your agony and pain will make demons sing

Upon your remains all of my children will feast

You have no savior, don't bother calling for priests

Rip your flesh to pieces with wicked razor sharp teeth

Your headless corpse shall now heel before me

Consequences that you face for disturbing the beast


[Outro: Labrythine]

Ecaps dna nevaeH fo gnik eht, em raeh

Ssentsav fo noitadnuof eht ,lla fo redael

Rorret fo rehsiuqnav eht ,esproc fo revomer

Reyortsed cinap fo rotaerc eht

Rotcive wollahs eht

[?htorihpeS] fo gniK fo nos

Ssyba eht fo naidraug eht

Ssenkrad fo ratla eht fo dog

Snoisnemid fo drol

HaoN retaerg

Sterces eht fo naidraug

Lebal eht fo drol

[?silopolageM] fo slegna eht fo rotsap
