Guardian of the Desert by Unknown

A tale whose author is lost to time.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Out on the dunes where the winds do blow,
Lies a tale of the sands, a tale of woe.
The Thousand Meter Death Rattle, they say,
Is a monster that haunts the desert's gray.

[Chorus]
Oh, hear the rattle, hear the call,
In the shifting sands, it stands tall.
A thousand meters, it spans the night,
Guardian of the desert, a fearsome sight.

[Verse 2]
Many a traveler has met his fate,
In the shadow of the dunes, in the heat of the day.
The Death Rattle's song, a siren's cry,
Draws the unwary, to the sky.

[Chorus]
Oh, hear the rattle, hear the call,
In the shifting sands, it stands tall.
A thousand meters, it spans the night,
Guardian of the desert, a fearsome sight.

[Pre-Chorus]
Whispers in the wind, a warning so clear,
Heed the ancient tales, and hold your fear.
For those who dare to cross its path,
Will find their end, in the desert's wrath.

[Chorus]
Oh, hear the rattle, hear the call,
In the shifting sands, it stands tall.
A thousand meters, it spans the night,
Guardian of the desert, a fearsome sight.

[Outro]
So let this tale be your guide,
In the desert's heart, where the Death Rattle hides.
May your journey be safe, and your heart be strong,
For the Thousand Meter Death Rattle, sings its deadly song.
