Somnambula:
She came, demanding tribute
Our harvest hers to consume
As our hunger continued
It seemed she’d be our doom!
There was no one to stop her
This Sphinx a beast so daunting
Yet still our Prince would be stirred
To resist her taunting
The beast was displeased,
Snatched him away to her temple lair,
For him to be freed her riddle must
Be solved, if we dare!
Somnambula + Choir:
All we know... All we owe,
All that shines as the Glowpaz glows,
All from faith… All From Hope!
Somnambula:
I knew it was my doing,
From such an innocent alm
Quickly I galloped after
I knew I must save Hisan
She asked me the phrase,
One simple riddle with all at stake
Then, I would elate
I knew the answer without mistake...
The sphinx scrunched up her wicked face to hear the answer found
She roared and said “you’ll know your place” then stomped against the ground
“But the riddles’ solved!” “You’re not absolved,” she said with leering eyes
“Your bounty still belongs to me.” Her word a hollow lie.
I could not leave the Prince in chains, and let her steal from everyone
“But what about another game? A challenge all or none.”
“But if I win you’ll go away, and leave our village be.”
The Sphinx, intrigued said: “We shall see.” Then laughed aloud in glee!

Somnambula:
Blind and without wings
She had me cross that most dangerous pool
But I made the leap
I held to Hope like a precious jewel
Somnambula + Choir:
All we know... All we owe,
All that shines as the Glowpaz glows,
All from faith… All From Hope!
Somnambula:
I was blessed… I still owe,
There’s no way I could tell you “no.”
I will come… Bring them Hope!
