Lyrics

(Mantis lord 1, Mantis lord 2, Mantis lord 3, All lords) (Spoken) So you've come to our throne Nail in hand You will be tested Prepare yourself! (Singing) Into the well, beyond the Wastes Without a thought, the fools make haste Travelling down into the dark Yet they never hearken to our guidance Challenge the sisters, if you dare Draw out your nail and say a prayer You will never make it through That which you pursue, guided by violence Violence! Draw on your power Or be devoured If you can't best us How then can we trust? You will be tested You'll be bested There's no resting! 'till your strength is manifested! You'll be tested There's no resting Manifest it! Child of void, come from the glades Can you survive the dance of blades? Standing before the Deepnest gates Prove now the strength to fight your fate! Mantises stand against the light You'll find we don't give up the fight! Here in our home! No! Still you challenge Here before our throne! (Spoken) You've some passing skill But we are not easily swayed We yield only to the strongest! Have at you! (Singing) Sisters of battle, now to arms! Power through fear, reject the harm! The three of us are resolute In our pursuit to protect the silence! Strong you may be, but you'll need more Swift you may seem, but you fight for Passage to the crawling gloom Waiting to consume All but the pious! Pious! Pious! Draw on your nail Or you will fail If you can't best us There's no more to discuss! You will be tested You'll be bested There's no resting 'till your strength is manifested! You'll be tested Manifest it! Manifest it! Will it succeed where others fell? Deep in the land where dark things dwell Will it be they to break the spell? Or will they give in to the swell? It's now the time to open up the gates! Let them inside to what awaits! Hollow child, now go! Oh! We bow to you Claim your pale throne!
