The expedition began at midnight The torchlit courtyard deathly still What lies beneath that 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 SongtexteTrapped 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 Aus Songtexte Mania
