Prima, give me your hand”
[Verse 1]
We stepped into the cave, darkness swallowing the light
Kai barely fit, but followed through the endless night
Our lights cut through the black, machines humming low
Timo held an old flashlight, guiding the way we go
Vendo kept dispensing random things when he got scared
Ronnie cleaned our tracks, making sure nothing was impaired
Toes marched ahead with Kai, “We are the guides today!”
Timo and Prima held hands, walking through the dark
Side by Side
[Pre-Chorus]
No sound but our engines, the silence felt alive
Then a voice echoed softly… cutting through the dive
[Chorus — mysterious]
Welcome, Cores
We’ve been waiting deep below
Welcome, Cores
But it seems you’re incomplete, you know
This path is dangerous, this place is not yet yours
You’re not ready… not ready for what’s in store
[Verse 2]
Two shadows approached, old, ancient, full of years
One spoke softly, “I am Wedge,” the other, “I am Leever, my dears”
Wedge and Leever, oldest machines, guarding this hidden place
“You’ve come far… but this is not yet your final space”
The group looked at each other, confusion in their eyes
Questions forming, hearts beating, under the cave’s skies
We were about to speak, to ask what they mean
But then Prima held me tighter as if she noticed something
[Pre chorus]
Two souls stayed here in the dark waiting for someone
Two souls tired but stayed hoping to meet the right one
[Chorus — mysterious]
Welcome, Cores
We’ve been waiting deep below
Welcome, Cores
But it seems you’re incomplete, you know
This path is dangerous, this place is not yet yours
You’re not ready… not ready for what’s in store
[Adlib][Solo]
[Coda]
We looked around and saw there other in there as well
We saw Wheel and we meet Axle both tired but smiling
We found Norias and Plane arguing at the corner
Then we here Kai asking them if they played poker
There were other still sitting in a circle all looking happy
Like they were expecting the arrival of somebody
Then we hear voices from outside -
[Music break][Tone shift]
[Pre-Chorus 2]
“Well well well… here we all are.”
[Chorus — mysterious]
Welcome, Cores
We’ve been waiting deep below
Welcome, Cores
But it seems you’re incomplete, you know
This path is dangerous, this place is not yet yours
You’re not ready… not ready for what’s in store
[Outro — tense cliffhanger]
The shadows turned…
The voice drew near…
Too dark to see, too dark to discern
“Hello?”
