Belly Of The Beast

A line had been drawn in the sand, we had been forced to decide
Now I admit that when it all started out I was the first to have doubts
But either way if it was wrong or it's right, we had transformed into knights
And so we reached for our shields, mounted up, and strapped our swords to our sides

Now as the journey progressed and the tension had slowly started to rise
We never wanted to be gone this long but the hunt carried on
Until some of us finally met our demise, and it's hard to not seem surprised
'Cause while we swam with the sharks they somehow let the ocean eat us alive

I see the dragon through the rain ahead
We were taken back by how the flames had spread
I see us burning in a fiery death
We weren't prepared for what transpired next
We felt our bodies begin to descend
I just wish I knew what we were up against

We sunk into the belly of the beast till most people thought we had deceased
Amazing to this day, somehow we both learned how to breathe
Tucked away beneath the swelling of the streets
We traveled on, till there was nothing left to eat
I thought that that was the foretelling of defeat
But then I saw the tides retreat and us propelling towards the beach
Making our way out of the belly of the beast
Travel on

I only use this sword to tear the flesh
And hide the fact I'm really scared to death
I only use this battle scene as the text
To hide the fact I've only dreamed of quests
And I'm not saying it should make much sense
I just wish I knew what we were up against
