Bloodphire Caverns

from The Velvet Tigris by Citadel

/

lyrics

I awoke to find the lore, the blade of a conjurer.
No remains were left of him. No sight of a body lay.
I’ve aimlessly slid through this cave for days.

I can see a glow from the end of the hall of stone!
Walls, illuminated by a floating orb of sparks.
Above the massive curled structure in the center of an endless opening. Oh! Horror! The limbs of the forsaken pinned upon the rods in the lake of blood!

I’ve not seen beauty of Saddphire; sustained and made new by the life that once ran through so many veins.
Oh! Don’t look at them! They have faces! They’re dead faces!

Oh! It won’t let go! The strands have wrapped around my hand!

In a nightmare, the blade shares superior resemblance
to the evil mix of blood and Saddphire, could I have found the forgery?

Why I did not see a curse? The seduction!
I have fallen prey to a device in a closed off place.

The velvet braids along the rough handle stream in the air
(Out! I run out!) I run back to the fields for days!

Can you hear my heart beat! Can you hear it?
I can hear my heart beat, I can hear it!
