The Mountian King

Footsteps echo in the hollow Stone and shadow start to follow Something breathing in the dark… Feel it scratching, hear it start… Low hum rising, tension tight Something moving out of sight Dripping walls and tightening air You’re not alone — it’s everywhere Heartbeat syncing with the sound Something circling underground Closer now, it starts to grin You feel the panic settling in Don’t look back — just move your feet It’s in the walls, beneath the beat Every second, closing in No escape from what begins RUN — it’s coming for your soul DOWN — where you lose control FAST — but it’s gaining speed YOU — are the thing it needs RUN — feel it in your bones DOWN — you’re not alone NOW — hear the kingdom sing BOW TO THE MOUNTAIN KING Pounding louder, breaking through Every step it’s chasing you Shadows stretch across the stone This is where you don’t go home Breathing heavy, vision shakes Every choice a small mistake Claws are dragging through your mind No more time, nowhere to hide Feel it crawling up your spine You were running out of time Every scream just feeds the sound Welcome to the underground RUN — it’s coming for your soul DOWN — where you lose control FAST — but it’s gaining speed YOU — are the thing it needs RUN — feel it in your bones DOWN — you’re not alone NOW — hear the kingdom sing BOW TO THE MOUNTAIN KING STEP STEP IT COMES FEEL THE WEIGHT OF DRUMS Closer — closer — closing IN LET THE HUNT BEGIN You can hear it in the deep You can feel it when you breathe Every echo, every scream You were never meant to leave RUN — there’s nowhere to go DOWN — deeper below FAST — but it’s in your head YOU — were as good as dead RUN — hear the kingdom call DOWN — to the endless hall NOW — let the silence ring LONG LIVE THE MOUNTAIN KING
