Down into the dark I go, armed with just a candle and then my soul Cryptic messages written on the floor Rats are nibbling at my feet, I send one off to nevermore Too much darkness, spiders on my eyes Webs are hanging from my thighs, the fatter ones must die I see shadows walking straight and tall I don't know how they move, dancing on the walls Presence of fear, a presence so near I wonder what could be so powerful beyond the dark Human bones... in little chambers all along the narrow halls Catacomb, death over life... Catacomb, am I here to die? I see a light, I push some bones aside Down into the dark I go, another chamber, a chamber with a glow Could this be a doorway to another world? Or darkness playing tricks, with my little mind? The virgin Mary is standing tall A full size figure carved in wood up against the wall Her face is peeling from all the years gone by Is it just a statue, or is it what I'm looking for? I break her face and see another one instead The mummy's face appears as the bandages they fall Dried out face with hate upon me gaze How grotesque... the mummy wears a crown of thorns From the empty sockets where its eyes should be An entity of light is pouring out towards me And then the sound... Jesus Christ,what have they done to you? I'm running for my life, I'm running from the night But it's so hard to breathe, the stench down here is much too much Satan help me, help me God Help me anyone, anyone who hears my cry of fear Cold winds from far beyond the dark Chasing through the catacomb and breathing down my neck Human bones... in little chambers all along the narrow halls Catacomb, death over life... Catacomb, am I here to die? I know I'm here to die
