Track Insight / Lyrics
Projected visions on stone walls high
CO2 fog, strobe lights begin to fly
Ancient temple secrets time forgot
As I grope through dusty chambers hot
From peak to cave, the mysteries sleep
Sifting debris, old frescoes peel
Echoes of history, whispers unreal
My heart pounds fast, the dark draws near
Must find the light source, banish fear
Gotta get out, shake this heavy air
I'm snowblind in the stone dark night
Lost in tunnels, lost in time tonight
Patterns on the walls, guiding me through
Snowblind, spotlight on the path anew
Letters in the rock spell out a glow
Follow them down, where shadows grow
A hidden chamber, and a lamp aglow
Figures dance upon the celebration show
Throngs of priestesses in their finest dresses
I'm snowblind in the stone dark night
Lost in tunnels, lost in time tonight
Patterns on the walls, guiding me through
Snowblind, spotlight on the path anew
Their ornate masks and varicolored robes
Organza, beaded, jewel-toned, gauzy clothes
Body chains and collars, amulets, headdresses
Ancient relics, burial goods, secrets beneath
I touch their hands, warm, eerily so
I'm snowblind in the stone dark night
Lost in tunnels, lost in time tonight
Patterns on the walls, guiding me through
Snowblind, spotlight on the path anew
Flicker, fade, the images dissolve
I emerge, blinking, back into the fold
Of mountains, snow, and glacial blue
Disoriented, I stumble through
Snowblind, spotlight on the path anew
I'm finding my way, the temple through
Guided by the visions of the past
Snowblind, the light at last
As I climb, the steward's call rings out
Frostbite, altitude sickness, growing doubt
Oxygen thin in body and brain
Snowblind, up I go, still there's no clear gain
