[Verse 1] In the heart of the desert, where the sun blisters the sand, An ancient mound lies silent, shrouded in shadow and hand. The winds they whisper warnings, of secrets deep and old, A place where the earth is dead, and the cold stories unfold. [Pre-Chorus] The mound, it calls to you, with a voice so unkind, A siren of the ancients, where the past and future entwine. Dig deep, and you shall find, what lies beneath the stone, But beware, for the truth is not for the faint of bone. [Chorus] Oh, the mound, a gateway to realms unseen, A portal to the abyss, where the starborn scream. The mound, a grave of elders, where the eldritch things reside, Here, the earth gives up her dead, and the skies run red with pride. [Verse 2] The earth beneath your feet, a hollowed, gnawing tomb, The air is thick with silence, in the shadowed, crypt-like gloom. The stars above, they twist and writhe, as if in pain, As you descend the spiral, into the depths below, where the damned remain. [Pre-Chorus] The mound, it pulls you down, into its belly deep, A labyrinth of the damned, where the shadows softly creep. The walls they seem to breathe, as if alive, as you stray, Into the heart of the mound, where the light of day cannot stay. [Chorus] Oh, the mound, a gateway to realms unseen, A portal to the abyss, where the starborn scream. The mound, a grave of elders, where the eldritch things reside, Here, the earth gives up her dead, and the skies run red with pride. [Bridge] Deep within the tunnels, where the air is thick and cold, You find the writings, of the beings long since old. Their language twists your mind, as you read the blasphemy, And you realize, you are but a man, in a place not meant for humanity. [Chorus] Oh, the mound, a gateway to realms unseen, A portal to the abyss, where the starborn scream. The mound, a grave of elders, where the eldritch things reside, Here, the earth gives up her dead, and the skies run red with pride. [Outro] So if you dare to venture, into the mound's embrace, Beware the secrets hidden, in the dark, ancient place. For once you've seen the truth, there's no turning back the hand, And the mound will claim you, as it has so many others, into the sand
