There’s a haunted secret inside of the Earth,
That swallows us whole, before we ever know.
There’s a way to dig the graves of hollowed gravity.

To swing in tune with chaos, truth, ego...
Direct me, I gift to you my praise.
Now, I’m standing on the edge of the world,
The edge of the voids, waiting for the unknown.
Cut me off from these floors so I may float away.
