I: Solitude
Under the mountains, deep in the world's core
Hiding under ancient rock and stone
There I have dwelt for a dark timeless age
In a cruel world, cold, lost, alone
Within these caverns of grim shadows
The rock surrounding me
Hides me from the light, brings me comfort
Caught underneath and yet as free
as I could ever wish to be
...Under the mountain I can...
Hide myself, hide my sorrow
Hide my deepest pain and grievances of old
All my days seem like endless nights
So dark, not a single star above
Within these caverns of grim shadows
The rock surrounding me
Hides me from the light, brings me comfort
Caught underneath and yet as free
as I could ever wish to be
I can feel it, I feel it, it's near
Now is the time to come to me
II: The Oath
Watching the world through corrupted eyes
Piercing the shadow with their cruel sight
Nothing escapes from the cunning hunter's gaze
Nothing escapes in White-Face light
...And so I hunt down
The thief - BAGGINS!!
The traitor - BAGGINS, SHIRE!!
The filthy liar that took away my one
I alone am the rightful owner of the One
the precious, my precioussssss...
III: A Twist Of Fate
A bleak sun rises in the East
Yet the night's reign is prolongued
Blackest of clouds cast from Orodruin
Darkness falls upon -
- The barren land I have to cross
To aid the master in his quest
Yet my goal remains unspoken
I swear that I will find no rest
Until he holds his precious One
Safe and tight in longing hands
A baneful twist of fate spells chaos
For all of Arda's lands
...For all of Arda's lands shall tremble
and despair under my reign...
...They will call me The Great...
IV: Sorrow And The Dreamer
My sorrow now ablaze
The call from the Darkland I shall not heed
The eye of evil flames
One part of me corrupted by greed
One part still dreams of old forests of green
And the beauty of all that remains to be seen
Released from this curse, unbound and free
V: Of Reason And Lost Ones
In the Land of Shadows
Under barren rock and ash
The final change was made
That set the final fate
Yet somewhere locked inside
The creature's twisted mind
A voice cries out in vain to him
Unheard, ignored, forgotten by the Ring
The time has come for you to open up your eyes
Time to awaken, see the truth obscured by lies
Leave now, go while you still can
And find that better place you have been after
Leave now, never come back (never to return)
It is no longer your master!!
