Cave of Splendor

from Firesword 2 by These Stains Are Who I Am

/

lyrics

There’s darkness all around
Stalactites hanging down, confound me
Sourceless echoes off the walls
One wrong step and I might fall and lose me

Cave of terror, will I ever leave?

All of a sudden some crystals start to glow
And standing on a cliff I see a city down below
From little houses animals head towards a giant hall
Mice and raccoons come with food while squirrels and rabbits guard the walls

I clamber down right through the gates not fearing any danger
At once a vole approaches me, says “welcome, dearest stranger!”
He leads me past a treasure horde and sits me at the feast
“Cheers to all,” then we begin to eat

Cave of splendor, I will never leave!

We’ve had our fill but still the banquet never seems to end
And I can’t avoid the sight of all these goblets, coins, and gems
I look around and smile from ear to ear
Pocket a coin - surely I have nothing to fear

Cave of splendor, you will never leave!
