The Cave

In the cave

Silent as the grave

Except for the waves

Of the curséd lake

Fell the chill of dark magic of long ago

See the corpses in the water, in the undertow

When you pay your tribute to the cave wall

Edge around the lake, careful not to fall

Raise from the murky depths a one man boat

Then cross to the island over this travesty of a moat

Impenatrable green liquid is all that you see there

If you desire what's beneath it, drink if you dare

Those who manage to survive and grasp what lies below

Have, waiting in the water, a far more evil foe

Not much will save you, as the rotting hand draws near

Especially if it is death and darkness that you fear

If you cannot pass them it is certain you will die

You will become his servant and forever you will lie

In the cave

Silent as the grave

Except for the waves

Of the curséd lake
