"Field log 37. Keeping this one short, per Command." "Apparently our internal transmissions are still finding their way onto public channels and that strange 'A.I. music' website. Looks like I'm famous now! Yay... Tucker, if you somehow hear this, lock the damn network down before they demote you back to field work. I do not want you standing next to me again." "Anyway... We picked up the masked wanderer two sectors east of the E.O.S. and followed at a distance. It led us somewhere we haven't documented before. Somewhere... New. We're calling it... The Ridge." "Crazy to think after nearly 40 years of studying this place, we've never seen this before..." "As for what we've discovered. The halls just... stop. Walls, carpet, lights, everything reaches an edge and gives way to an open void. No visible floor. No visible bottom. The structure continues vertically in both directions farther than our equipment can resolve." "The strange part is the other side. There are more hallways across the gap. Doors. Rooms. Entire sections of the complex continuing like nothing happened. I'm not sure how we'll reach them. Probably need to file an 'ER-08-1' with Command so we can begin mapping the new zone... Which I'm beginning to believe it is. Hopefully they approve it quicker this time..." "Maybe I'll get a raise for this. Heh." [Refrain 1] I walked along the yellow halls, Until the floor was missing, Broken walls reveal corridors, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 2] The ceiling lights still buzz above, But nothing waits below me, A thousand doors still lead to rooms, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 3] I found a doorway near the edge, It opened out to nowhere, Carpet ends at the opening, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 4] Stay close beside the yellow wall, And never trust the railing, A single step becomes a slip, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 5] Across the gap, the hallways wait, As if the space were normal, More yellow halls line either side, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 6] The farther down, the less I see, The lights grow faint and colder, Lower levels seem infinite, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 7] The halls above go out of sight, The halls below keep falling, Between the floors there is nothing, Welcome to the Ridge! [Refrain 8] I thought these halls would have an end, I think I finally found it, They stop and leave a single gap, Welcome to the Ridge! [Outro] Across the dark, another hall, Its doorway standing open, I wonder how I get from here... Welcome to the Ridge!
