Lyrics

[Verse 1] Heroic age of Antarctic exploration A craft defies the seas alone Long voyage of discovery To a continent unknown On board, only veterans of adventure Seasoned experts in the field Vying to become the first To expose what's unrevealed [Verse 2] Approaching rugged Barren and white shores Enveloped in the black of night A grim, glacial wasteland Their final destination in sight Provisional encampment establishеd Now fixated on the goal All spirits high To unearth thе buried Hidden secrets of the pole [Verse 3] Wind-lashed and broken By extreme temperatures Glaciers and crevasses Blizzards to endure Plodding through persistent fog Poor visibility On eroded horizons Looms an impossibility [Bridge 1] Massive range, monstrous peaks Menacing, fragile Howling dogs, crew in awe As they behold Mount Skull [Verse 4] Fears cast aside On to an unveiled passageway Battered and beaten by the storm Shelter found inside the cave Astonishing Interior A labyrinth unfolds Repulsive rotten stench Sinister shadows [Bridge 2] Descending, sweltering Phosphorescent walls Troglodytes, dreadful shrieks Echo in huge halls So long [Guitar Solo] [Verse 5] Only one, may escape No companions left Running from that grotesque thing Lurking in the depths [Outro] Decades passed Since their disappearance And then his frozen corpse was found A body, well-preserved by severe frost His logbook, had fallen on the ground An expression of terror Covers a tortured face Telling the tale of death and pain The mountain shaped Like a human skull Well, that mystery will always remain
