Inner Sanctum

Paradise lost
Living in a dream
Darkness immense
Suffering scream

Powerful voice
So loud so loud
Down from above
Beat down the proud

Hearing the force
Waiting below
Hold on tighter
Cannot let go

Pulling so hard
Struggling within
Biting the ropes
Cutting of skin

Follow me up
Braving the cold
Trial of life
Joining the bold
