[Intro] [Bass riff] We left the walls without looking back On our trusty steeds, lizards in a pack, Six shadows riding, on the scorching sand, To find our fortune, on this dying land. [Verse 1] A dwarf with no hair but an axe to grind A warrior with scars on body and mind A half-elf beaut with a scoundel’s grin A skinny mage hiding marks on his skin A mantis man we found in the dunes And a half giant druid covered in runes [Chorus] UNDER A DARK SUN! Survival is the game UNDER A DARK SUN! For fortune and for fame [Guitar riff] [Verse 2] We found an old road swallowed by sand And merchants besieged by a raider’s band They were after water and after the slaves And promised no harm if we all behave We could have turned back, but we picked a fight The raiders ran, with nowhere to hide The merchants refused to pay us a fee Now their water is ours and the slaves ran free [Pre-Chorus] No gods, no heroes… But we’re still alive The world is dying, Fight to survive Death in the dust, blood in the sand Blade in your fist, fate in your hands [Chorus] UNDER A DARK SUN! Survival is the game UNDER A DARK SUN! For fortune and for fame [Drum solo] [Verse 3] Found an ancient temple of black stone With a witch chained to a throne of bone The scoundrel warned “Something’s wrong.” The fighter said, “I won’t take long.” The witch’s voice was sin, her eyes were fire Our friend turned to dust for a kiss of desire A sudden trapdoor took us down But we landed soft on a huge pile of bone Among the rubble, a king’s golden crown And another warning, to leave it alone The dwarf’s eyes for treasure, he took our chance The walls closed in and the bones began to dance We grabbed it quick, and ran like hell We almost lost the dwarf as well [Pre-Chorus] No rain and no mercy… But we’re still alive The world is dying, Fight to Survive Death in the dust, blood in the sand Blade in your fist, fate in your hands [Chorus] UNDER A DARK SUN! Survival is the game UNDER A DARK SUN! For fortune and for fame [Guitar riff] [Verse 4][Mellow] A wind came screaming across the plain Black as the night but carried no rain The wizard whispered, “Don’t look in its eyes.” As his flesh was eaten by maggots and flies. After dark the stars shine a light Ancient ruins wake in the night Kings in the dust, ghosts in the sand One last gamble for a piece of this land [Outro][Half-spoken] We don’t need much Just water and luck A blade, a beast and someone to … share our tale
