lyrics

There's a gun to their heads, and computer screens
Video games on the console, some avatars
A giant bull on the screen, and a maze with white walls
Only thing on the title, 'The Minotaur'
"Get ready to run" a voice belows from their speakers
Chat is revving up for murder and a death scene
Shaky hands on the keyboard
"...What happens if we win?"

The final battle begins

Who will be left standing? A mother or a god
Who will live through the challenge, the worthy one!
Is there life beyond belief, beyond sacrifice?
Is there's something on the other side, when I die!
Either eaten alive, or left to rot in a maze
If the minotaur's a god, why's he stuck in this place?
There's no heaven with freedom, no justice without war
There is nothing on the other side, nothing at all!

The rules are simple, escape from the minotaur
In a white-walled maze, there is no view of the exit
"No one's ever made it out of here alive, so"
"There's no chance you will win, you will not survive"
"Everyone must die, only one left standing"
"If you find the exit first, you are free to go"
"But if I find you before that, I will eat you alive"

"Let the games begin"

Who will be left standing? A mother or a god
Who will live through the challenge, the worthy one!
Is there life beyond belief, beyond sacrifice?
Is there's something on the other side, when I die!
Either eaten alive, or left to rot in a maze
If the minotaur's a god, why's he stuck in this place?
There's no heaven with freedom, no justice without war
There is nothing on the other side, nothing at all!

Can you escape the wrath of the minotaur?
Will you destroy a God that has given you life?
There is only so much that a kid can take
There is only death in its wake
Will you escape the wrath of the minotaur?
As you witness a God, within all his grace
The souls of the forgotten, lay in waste
There is only so much that a kid can fake

Can they escape the wrath of the minotaur?
Know there is no God, he doesn't walk among us
There is only so much that a kid can take
There is only so much that a kid can hate
Determination to live, and the cunning to survive
Think for yourself, and live out your life
Indoctrinated by a god that looks down on you
Restricted by his beliefs, of which there is no proof!

The final battle ends

Who will be left standing? A child or a god
Who will live through the challenge, the worthy one!
Is there life beyond belief, beyond sacrifice?
Is there's something on the other side, when I die!
Either eaten alive, or left to rot in a maze
If the minotaur's a god, why's he stuck in this place?
There's no heaven with freedom, no justice without war
There is nothing on the other side, nothing at all!
Nothing at all!

Nothing at all
