Dwellers of the Forbidden City

from Hex Volume 1 by Loot the Body

/

lyrics

Deep within the jungle’s heart
There’s a city that remains
And those who make it back alive
Will never be the same

We scaled the mountain with no crown
Then into caverns underground
When we emerged we were confronted by such things that we could not believe

In the sacrificial pool
Consequences dire
For those who somehow make it through
There’s the waterfall of fire

We heard the call of the aboleth
Speak with a voice from inside our head
And as he summoned there were those within our party who could not resist

There’s something alive
Something alive in the ruins
There’s something alive
Something alive and it calls

Voices whisper from the trees
Like insectes in a hive
And creepers yellow with disease
Are eating us alive

We saw the snakemen’s gleaming eyes
Hunger for human sacrifice
Tormenting all the unbelievers on the altar of the serpent god

There’s something alive
Something alive in the ruins
There’s something alive
Something alive and it calls
