Balrog

As summer retreats and fades

To haunting shades of tarnishing gold

An old and ancient thing lies underneath

A lingering fissure grows

A shadow is creepin' in

Is everything cavin' in?

They gouge and they dig into

The rock and the stone that's buried below

The weakened and hollowed walls stand wavering

The looming fracture grows

The bedrock is wearing thin

The bedrock is wearing thin

It feels like we're cavin' in

The chasm grows

Is everything cavin' in?

The ramparts come tumbling down

The bedrock was spoiled so long ago

Gilded walls fall to the ground

Every day the fracture grows

The ramparts come tumbling down

The bedrock was spoiled so long ago

Gilded walls fall to the ground

Every day the fracture grows

Everything's cavin' in

Withering stones

Everything's cavin' in

Downward it goes

Downward it goes

Downward it goes

Downward it goes

Downward it goes
