I hear the raging hearts
As they beat to the same rhythm
And all in the same pitch
Walking through the tunnel
I feel that I am not alone
In my endeavor
To search for that which
Strikes my curiosity
I am not here for desecration
But merely to gain knowledge
My hands travel down
The limestone walls
Feeling something wet across my palm
I quickly bring it
Close to my face
And see the bright red fluid
Dripping from my fingers
Thinking my imagination
Is taking over me
I glance behind me
Seeming to hear footsteps
When I turn around again
I see the spine-tingling eyes
That I thought were just fiction
When I painfully awake
I find myself in a coffin
Beside me is a jar
Of my drained blood
I smile at my maker
Reading to join him
In our underground kingdom
Our necropolis
As they beat to the same rhythm
And all in the same pitch
Walking through the tunnel
I feel that I am not alone
In my endeavor
To search for that which
Strikes my curiosity
I am not here for desecration
But merely to gain knowledge
My hands travel down
The limestone walls
Feeling something wet across my palm
I quickly bring it
Close to my face
And see the bright red fluid
Dripping from my fingers
Thinking my imagination
Is taking over me
I glance behind me
Seeming to hear footsteps
When I turn around again
I see the spine-tingling eyes
That I thought were just fiction
When I painfully awake
I find myself in a coffin
Beside me is a jar
Of my drained blood
I smile at my maker
Reading to join him
In our underground kingdom
Our necropolis
