Lyrics
You're on a path in the woods, in the woods there's a cabin
And the heart of a threat to the world has been trapped in
A damsel in distress
Who is planning on distracting the wielder of a blade
From a fate that must happen
Apocalypse is looming and it's riding on your fate
No more birds, no more trees, no more night, and no more day
Cause the ending will retreat with every letter that I say
Inside the hell developing in the event that shе escapes
It's been a while, it felt like years
You came to rescue me?
My hero! You're the saviour here?
I doubt it when you freeze
How fearsome could this princess be?
Don't leave me chained here
Do as you should and set me free!
I WON'T BE SLAIN HERE
As you step into the night, you'll soon be scaling up the hill
You must keep moving, no more days here left to kill
All that's left for you: A princess and a blade upon a table
If you claim yourself unable: I advise you slay her still
There must be another way! No, it's wrong to have her slain!
Throw away that blade I pray! This maiden also has a say!
This is no item for debate, she'll be lying to your face
All your piety and grace, we'll all be dying if she's saved!
By design she may look normal but don't trust her, she's not
Deep behind those crying eyes there's a devil with a plot
Don't you foolishly pretend you won't be left down here to rot
Or be cruel and promise clemency, then end her on the spot
Once a viscous superstition, she could take her powers back
Trained believers are but victims waiting later down the track
So don't listen, little voices may distract you from the act
Take a breath, take a step
And have a stab
It's been a while, it felt like years
You came to rescue me?
My hero! You're the saviour here?
No stranger way to meet
How fearsome could this princess be?
Don't leave me chained here
Do as you should and set me free!
I won't be slain here
This cabin shifts by your beliefs!
Don't leave me chained here
Well after death, my heart will beat!
I WON'T BE SLAIN HERE
You're on a path in the woods, in the woods there's a cabin
And the heart of a threat to the world has been trapped in
A damsel in distress
Who is planning on distracting the wielder of a blade
From a fate that must happen
So send her to the depths, make her pay for what she's done!
When you're slain you don't forget
Drive that blade between her lungs!
Is there ANOTHER one of us? She's already killed us once!
If our "friend" doesn't remember; let him think we've just begun!
Days mean nothing in the maw of forever
Daydreams mocking as I claw and dismember
Chain me up, but we'll still be together
Slay me, but if I'm killed; I'll remember
Waiting will not trouble this specter
Shaking still?
I'll ruffle your feathers
Chain me up, but we'll still be together
Days mean nothing in the maw of forever
As you gaze into the basement you're in shock at what you saw
The chains that held the princess are forgotten on the floor
So ominous an aura o'er the horrid bonds she tore
Forgiveness was a privilege: Now it's all out war
As she dives into the darkness, you're in fear of what comes next
Your eyes are leaden-heavy and you feel you need some rest
There is a purpose for that blade you can't neglect
If you wait to slay the princess; she'll be slaying you instead
With every swipe you're meeting flesh
But then you find it's all in vain
For every time you strike Her Highness she replies with just the same
So with knowledge you're no match and she's no longer tied in chains
You try to run away, perhaps you'll die another day
With regret the threat of death comes near and up the stairs you climb
You make it past the door assuming there you'll be alright
Your legs give out beneath you and you find you're paralyzed
Your breathing stops, it all goes dark
...And you die
It's been a while, it felt like years
You came to rescue me?
"My hero," You're the saviour here?
I doubt it when you freeze
How fearsome could this princess be?
Don't leave me chained here
Do as you should and set me free!
I won't be slain here
This cabin shifts by your beliefs!
Don't leave me chained here
Well after death my heart will beat!
I won't be slain here
What would you risk to feel the breeze?
Don't leave me chained here
To see the sky, the birds, the trees?
I won't be slain here
Down to the bone it's what I need
Don't leave me chained here
I die; I'll take you down with me
I won't be slain here
