Deep in the ground Dwelling in the dark Far under deepest places of earth More evil than the darkest of demons Those who see it will never be seen again Do not dare to find The bane of all mankind For it will be the end of your days And there you would lay All lost and astray Before the shadow of dark decay The wisest The strongest And the fairest All share one common fear The smell of death The smiting of its steps The ancient legend of the shadow No prophecy foretold the death of the beast For it shall forever dwell No mortal being shall ever destroy The entity of pure darkness Do not dare to find The bane of all mankind For it will be the end of your days And there you would lay All lost and astray Before the shadow of dark decay
