Lyrics [Intro] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1] Deep within the spider halls Past the shrine and bloodstained walls Heroes crossed the shadowed gate Stepped into the web of fate Four drow guards stood cold and near Feasting on another's fear Balwiira, Restryn, Ulraelle Olorgyl beside them fell Grog's great axe and Beroth's flame Turned the chamber into flame Zelprime's arrows struck with speed Wiskim fought where shadows lead [Chorus] Beneath the eyes of Spider Queen Where blood and terror stain the scene Daughters of House Auvryndar Guarded Lolth's abyssal scar Yet webs can break and schemes can fall Even deep in Lolth's dark hall Heroes came with steel in hand To challenge darkness in the land [Verse 2] On the stone a circle lay Drawn in entrails black and grey Ringed with infernal runes and signs Carved there in still bloody lines Beroth knelt and studied long Read the words both foul and strong Learned the purpose of this place Lolth's cruel test of drowish grace All who passed through that black gate Met the Spider Queen's dark fate Blessed if they survived the trial Or drider if they failed the while [Interlude] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 3] Beyond the chamber rose a cry A tortured voice that would not die There they found a hidden sight Shielded from the cavern light Narizmar bound upon a board Cold water poured in endless flood Sylkress smiled beside the frame Drinking deeper than his pain When battle thunder shook the room She saw the approaching doom Wounded, she chose to trade away Every secret her house would say [Chorus] Beneath the eyes of Spider Queen Where blood and terror stain the scene Daughters of House Auvryndar Guarded Lolth's abyssal scar Yet webs can break and schemes can fall Even deep in Lolth's dark hall Heroes came with steel in hand To challenge darkness in the land [Verse 4] Through the iron door ahead They heard the lash strike once again There upon the turning wheel A darker secret stood revealed Pellanonia proudly lay Bore every stroke that rained that day Ghirith wielded whip and chain Their pleasure hidden in the pain When steel was drawn and fighting broke Their cruel game came undone Trapped at last she spoke aloud All the war that had been planned [Bridge] One great truth none here had heard No word had travelled past the ward All still praised T'rissa's holy might Her cathedral, her endless fight Believed she ruled the depths below With all her spiders in a row Two days prior beneath the stone That truth had already been overthrown Grog had swung his axe with rage Beroth lit the battle stage Arius, Zelprime, Wiskim stood And sent the priestess to the mud T'rissa Auvryndar was dead None within these halls had heard [Final Chorus] Beneath the eyes of Spider Queen Where blood and terror stain the scene Daughters of House Auvryndar Served a house already scarred While they plotted war and doom Whispered lies in torture rooms Their greatest queen was cold and gone Slain before the coming dawn On through dark the heroes strode Deeper down Undermountain road Lolth's black web began to tear From wounds the drow did not yet share [Outro] (Instrumental Solo)
