Choose it wrong, and you will bleed..

[Verse 14 - Whisper]:

Madness pulls, and none remain..

[Verse 15 - Whisper]:

Fifteen..! seconds, all goes still,

A heavy silence bends your will..

[Verse 16 - Whisper]:

You’ve little time, no room for haste..

[Verse 17 - Whisper]:

Run too fast, or lose your mind..

One step further, join the dead..

The endless horror has just begun..

[Verse 21 - Whisper]:

Twenty-one..! shadows rise from the ground,

Their chilling whispers are the only sound..

[Verse 22 - Whisper]:

Twenty-two..! winds howl through the trees,

Each gust carries haunting pleas..

[Verse 23 - Whisper]:

Twenty-three..! cracks in the broken mirror,

Each one shows your darkest fear..

[Verse 24 - Whisper]:

Twenty-four..! flames burn cold and blue,

Their light fades fast – it’s hunting you..

[Outro - Whisper]:

If you’ve counted to twenty-four, start anew,

The night won’t end; it’s coming for you..!
