They say the cave is dangerous
They say the creature that dwells within is vile and cruel
They say only the greatest of heroes in Greece could slay the beast

I say the cave is home 
I say I just want to - no - need to survive
I don't ever think I'll be killed

My cave is littered with fallen "heroes", none of whom could keep from looking me in the eyes

One stone-cold look is all it takes to freeze them in their tracks
