Story behind the song
A tomb raider searches through an old egyptian tomb, a particularly dangerous one that no one has survived in. When he does and reaches the mythical treasure he is warned that while it might give riches it might also bring death.
Lyrics
I'd better watch my step - for this tomb is frail - if I make one wrong move - it'll break
The treasure will make it all worthwhile
The sacred artifact of the gods
Discovering this will break down it's shroud of mystery
Rough stone, blinding darkness
Navigations a pain, when you're stepping over the slain
Incompetant tomb raiders, know not that the darkness reveals more than the light
The catacombs are shrinking, an incoming signal
Resonating within my moral fabrics, they whisper
"advance with your own life"
I will, getting closer
Did you ever think we'd get this far
Can I bring it any further?
Put me between burning pillars and still I will escape
Dodging arrows and snakes I've got what it takes
Charred remains don't intimidate one bit
Oncoming demise I'll live to my last breath
But that last breath is not soon
and not within these tombs
Courageous one, you have made it deep inside these walls
So break the seal, and take my ancient gift
Break the seal
