Ghost Tower of Inverness

The call went out from every throne, Retrieve the Soul Gem, bring it home. A wizard's prize, a kingdom's fate, Beyond the shattered castle gate. The tower rises from the plain, A phantom built from death and pain. Its broken stones hide endless schemes, Where nothing's ever what it seems. Pre-Chorus Every stair another snare. Every doorway, say a prayer. The dead remember every name. None who enter leave the same. Chorus Ghost Tower of Inverness, Trials carved in stone. Every room a deadly test, No hero stands alone. Fight through fear and cursed design, Past illusion's veil. Claim the Soul Gem's spectral light, Or let your legend fail. Verse 2 The bronze portcullis groans aside, The gargoyle watches, cold with pride. False passages and hidden floors, Death is waiting behind the doors. The chessboard dares us make a move, One wrong step and we're removed. Living pieces strike with steel, Only the clever survive the field. Pre-Chorus Every answer births a choice. Hear the wizard's mocking voice. Greed will lead the brave astray. Only wisdom lights the way. Chorus Ghost Tower of Inverness, Trials carved in stone. Every room a deadly test, No hero stands alone. Fight through fear and cursed design, Past illusion's veil. Claim the Soul Gem's spectral light, Or let your legend fail. Bridge Crystal chambers bend the light. Magic turns the day to night. The invisible stalker hunts the air, You feel its breath though nothing's there. The sphinx demands the answer true, One false word and death finds you. Elemental fury calls, Fire and ice within these halls. Then at last the summit waits, Beyond enchanted iron gates. The Soul Gem burns with ghostly flame, Enough to drive the world insane. Wizard's treasure, kingdom's prize, Paid for with a thousand lives. Guitar Solo Final Chorus Ghost Tower of Inverness, Every scar we've earned. Every trap and every test, Another lesson learned. Raise the Soul Gem to the sky, Break the ancient spell. Leave the tower while you can... Or join its ghosts as well. Outro The tower fades with morning's light, Gone before another night. But somewhere on that lonely moor, A phantom waits behind the door. The gargoyle smiles. The chessmen stand. The riddles wait for steadier hands. When kingdoms call for desperate souls, The Ghost Tower claims its toll.
