The Cavern by GreatPerhaps Lyrics

Exploding Earth surrounds the hero,
(or villain, he hasn't quite decided which yet),
And light caresses the water beneath him.
A still portrait of chaos greets his presence.

The cavern had been pure darkness before,
and he had to continually speak,
to remind himself he was there.
“This is my voice. This is my voice. This is my voice.”

But finally the sun availed itself,
striking the cave in the mouth,
where he could see bleeding rays of photons.
His eyes rejected the change, but he forced through.

This, he thought, must be the end.
So he walked out to the city.
From one prison to another.
Not sure whether he preferred the darkness or light.
