[Intro - Dark guitar arpeggios. Somber bass. Dripping water.]
[Deep, reverb]
Deep in the frozen caverns... where sunlight never bleeds...
Gigginox... the poison dweller... feeds beneath the ice.
---
[Verse 1 - Atmospheric gothic rock]
Born in the Tundra darkness where the cold wind never sleeps
My eyes have long degraded—I've no need for what they keep
I sense you by your body heat, the warmth that gives you life
A special organ guides me through this eternal night
My skin is pale and bloodless, grey-white upon my back
But underneath I'm crimson—the red of life I lack
I stretch my neck like leech maw, my tail extends with ease
I am the cave's dark spirit, moving with the breeze
---
[Pre-Chorus]
Heat betrays you
Poison claims you
Gigginox... the hunter of the frozen plain
---
[Chorus]
Gigginox... creature of the frozen cave
Gigginox... beneath the stone I crave
Gigginox... no eyes to see your fear
Gigginox... but I know that you are here
---
[Verse 2]
My children are the Giggis, born from sacs I leave behind
They crawl upon the cavern walls, a legacy unkind
The purple globs I leave behind are poison in disguise
When rage consumes my being, my skin turns black as coal
My head grows hard as iron—but my tail becomes the soul
The hunter who learns my secrets is the hunter who will live
---
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Rage consumes me
Form transforms me
Gigginox... the nightmare without end
---
[Chorus]
Gigginox... creature of the frozen cave
Gigginox... beneath the stone I crave
Gigginox... no eyes to see your fear
Gigginox... but I know that you are here
---
[Bridge - Spoken]
[Whispered]
My name means teeth... and darkness... and poison fog...
I am the nightmare of the Tundra... the shadow in the bog.
[Band swells]
In the end, I am the darkness—eternal and unending
---
[Verse 3]
Forgotten in the anniversary poll, a creature of the cold
But still I take my hunters, still my story's told
I'll drag you underneath me, consume you slow and deep
The nightmare that I offer is the nightmare that you keep
Gigginox—the poison wyvern—the cave dweller of the mind
In the frozen depths I wait... forever intertwined
---
[Guitar Solo - Dark, melodic, atmospheric]
---
[Breakdown]
From the ceiling I descend
Giggi children without end
Poison in the air you breathe
Nothing here will ever leave
Head of iron, tail of need
Hunter learn or hunter bleed
Gigginox... eternal... slow
---
[Final Chorus]
Gigginox... creature of the frozen cave
Gigginox... beneath the stone I crave
Gigginox... no eyes to see your fear
Gigginox... but I know that you are here
---
[Outro]
[Whispered, fading]
I know that you are here...
The Tundra calls me home...
...back into the stone.
