[Intro]

Drip, drip, dark lake drop,
hear that water never stop.
Lanterns swing and shadows hop—
welcome down to Sloobludop.

[Verse 1]

We ran from chains and spider eyes,
from whips that cracked behind,
with stolen breath and borrowed blades
and madness in the mind.

The tunnels bent, the fungi glowed,
the stone forgot the sun,
and every step through blackened earth
said, “You are not yet done.”

Shuushar walked ahead of us,
calm as a corpse at prayer,
while Jimjar counted phantom coins
and Stool breathed hope in air.

[Pre-Chorus]

Then the cavern opened wide,
black water without end,
and every little light ahead
looked almost like a friend.

Almost.

[Chorus]

Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
lights on the water and the world won’t stop.
Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
pray to the deep that the bridge don’t drop.

We came with scars,
we came with rot,
we came with a chest and a half-made plot.
No sky, no sun, no way back up—
just one more night in Sloobludop.

[Verse 2]

Eight fire beetles lit the road,
then tried to eat our faces,
Varang brought the ash and bone,
Edric made poor choices.

Aeris bent the earth to war,
and drow fell screaming down,
Vorgrath laughed at death again,
because of course he did, the clown.

Iragon heard whispers crawl,
Dose kept his samples near,
and somewhere in the baggage train
the chest drank up our fear.

[Pre-Chorus]

Then the Darklake breathed below,
still as a waiting god,
and every ripple seemed to say:
“You fools have come so far.”

Too far.

[Chorus]

Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
lights on the water and the world won’t stop.
Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
pray to the deep that the bridge don’t drop.

We came with scars,
we came with rot,
we came with a chest and a half-made plot.
No sky, no sun, no way back up—
just one more night in Sloobludop.

[Bridge]

Clack of rope and creak of wood,
lanterns swinging red,
fish-eyed shadows turn to watch
the newly hunted dead.

Is it refuge?
Is it trap?
Is it madness with a dock?
Nobody knows,
but nobody stops—

because the dark behind us walks.

[Breakdown]

Sloo-bloo-dop!
Don’t look down.
Sloo-bloo-dop!
Don’t turn around.

Sloo-bloo-dop!
The lake is black.
Sloo-bloo-dop!
There’s no going back.

[Final Chorus]

Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
lights on the water and the world won’t stop.
Sloobludop, Sloobludop,
pray to the deep that the bridge don’t drop.

We came with scars,
we came with rot,
we came with a chest and a half-made plot.
No sky, no sun, no way back up—
just one more night in Sloobludop.

[Outro]

Drip, drip, dark lake drop,
hear that water never stop.
Lanterns swing and shadows hop—

welcome down to Sloobludop.
