[Intro] [glitchy synth arpeggio, filtered drum loop] [bass drop] [Verse 1] [male vocals, rapid delivery] Here in Rivendell where Elrond dwells The breeze itself is full of majesty and spells I wander through halls so bright and fair With starlight woven into the very air [distorted synth bass enters] Then came dinner, a feast so grand I declare there couldn't be finer food in the land After the feast he shared his wisdom true Reading ancient runes not even Gandalf knew Or Orcrist the Goblin-cleaver Thorin bears with honor And Glamdring the Foe-hammer known to its owner Then Elrond spread Thorin's ancient map Its edges worn, the ink a-fading rap (Hey!) He traced the runes with gentle tone Revealing marks I'd never seen shown [Chorus] [heavy dubstep beat, wobbling bass] Stand by the grey stone when the thrush knocks A secret kept behind enchanted locks And the last light of the setting sun Shall shine upon the keyhole when the day is done [melodic layering] Oh my, a hidden path we might never know Woven runes revealed by moonlight glow [Instrumental Break] [aggressive synth growls, syncopated percussion, glitch effects] [Verse 2] [beat continues, bass pulses] Then from his robes Gandalf suddenly drew An ancient key, presented to Thorin with a "For you" A gift saved for this moment, the key to the secret door Left for Thorin by his father one hundred years before What a glorious day, I wish we could remain But the road calls on through shadow and rain To the Lonely Mountain where the dragon sleeps And the treasure of old the monster keeps But for now we rest in this valley of peace Where the wonders of Middle-earth never cease To fortune favors and I'm spared the fray I'll return to Rivendell When I'm older one day [Outro] [synth pads fade, final bass hit]
