*Into the unknown, I walk down braving the heat Searing and almost burning like hot cement, Then dry and dusty like burnt sand and rocks. I fall apart at the doorway, my strength all spent, Falling into dusty shards of burnt ash. Before me there is a violin playing as shadowy wraiths sung. They sing a strange song, and I am visible to everyone, The windows are on all sides, so I decide to run. Up the stairs, running slow, feeling as though I can't, Only finding a piano musty and cold, damp and old, And I feel I am being watched as I look back To see his red glowing eyes, as bright as coals. Then I awaken to a forgiving night. It's cold, dark and black.*

*Into the unknown, I walk down braving the heat Searing and almost burning like hot cement, Then dry and dusty like burnt sand and rocks. I fall apart at the doorway, my strength all spent, Falling into dusty shards of burnt ash. Before me there is a violin playing as shadowy wraiths sung. They sing a strange song, and I am visible to everyone, The windows are on all sides, so I decide to run. Up the stairs, running slow, feeling as though I can't, Only finding a piano musty and cold, damp and old, And I feel I am being watched as I look back To see his red glowing eyes, as bright as coals. Then I awaken to a forgiving night. It's cold, dark and black.*
