In 1994, a team of divers discovered a small, unmarked cave entrance off the coast of Belize, located approximately 5600m below sea level, a roughly 3x3 metre crack in the side of a large ridge, which was covered with moss, entangled with rocks.

When approaching the entrance of the cave, the four divers experienced strange “side effects”, with one of the divers suffering a cardiac arrest, causing him to fall into a coma for 18 days, he eventually made a full recovery avoiding major injuries.

A few photographs were taken from a distance, and the news spread internationally overnight like wildfire. Every local, national and international news source had a story on what would be dubbed “The Devils Cave.”

The next morning, following the initial news break, an American company named SEMTEX™ had funded a full voyage into the cave, complete with a newly crafted submersible they called “The Toothpick” a tall and thin pod-like vessel, perfectly crafted to enter the caves slim and ridged entrance.

Franklin Cook was chosen to lead the mission. A 21 year old British college dropout who initially moved to the US to start training to be a pilot, but eventually switched his focus to deep sea exploration.

Records show Mr. Cook started working for SEMTEX™ in 1994, the same year as the voyage of “The Toothpick.”

Little is known as to why Franklin Cook was chosen to be the pilot of the submersible, as he was only 9 weeks into a 52 week submariner training course, being seemingly unqualified for the job.

Due to the size of the vehicle, no extra passengers were able to board The Toothpick, only Franklin, equipped with minimal supplies and some assistance from SEMTEX™ HQ via a radio.

This is the recently found recording of that voyage on the March 14th, 1994.

We are actively trying to solve this case.

Thank you.

lyrics:
(brecken)
i just got the message that my feelings all got turned down
wasteful word of mouth
if we wont ever work out, time to move towns
I don't wanna burn out

i don't wanna turn out like the people all around me
just like you found me
yea my vision was cloudy
my heart was pounding
all you had to say to me
was quit the shouting
how u make it seem like make believe
heart been crunching like some maple leaves
u said that i couldn't pay to leave
now i'm up chillin in major league
they watch me when i pull the cash out
i don't even really want em to see
but that stuff fall out of my bag now
so whatever it is it'll be

what is this timing it got me mad now
trusted my eyes and then had to back down
push me on the ground when i'm trapped is where i lie now
lately its been so hard to relax when i lay down

don't wanna try now
all alone in a nice house
don't condone what i do now
you never check on ur phone how
summer is coming up and hopefully i'm in a new town
hopefully i'm like an hour away so she never shows up
and you cannot hear if there's something to say
ill keep my doors shut
i always complain but i'll take the blame 
i'll blame it on poor luck
what is this timing it got me mad now
pushing up my feelings and time to say goodbye now

i don't wanna turn out like the people all around me
just like you found me
yea my vision was cloudy
my heart was pounding
all you had to say to me
was quit the shouting

ohhh-ohhh-ohhh
turning out like this makes me feel like this stuff never ends
ohhh-ohhh-ohhh
wish that i could make some sense but you don't want that ever again

heyzbee:

look around everything’s not quite right
the sun is out but it doesn’t seem to be bright
the skin on people that i see looks too tight 
and then i look into their eyes and they’re all white 

scream into my face saying welcome to the valley 
people that are around you seem to be uncanny
you’re staying here forever i hope you miss your family
cuz you will never see them again there is no saving

devin’s world:

aint no savin 
so i gotta stay in 
hide from all the monsters all the demons plaguing 

how’d i end up in a world 
where i am paralyzed 
 torn flesh from their hands 
and glowing eggshell eyes 

woah woah im screaming 
hard to believe in 
it feels so real 
that it’s coursing through my being 

lost in a realm 
of sadness and fear 
safe to say don’t wanna be here 
safe to say i wanna leave here

maniac or panic attack i don’t know which is real 
holding onto my battle axe cus i know i can’t be healed 
yeah one touch of evil can break the seal and suddenly i’m dead
but maybe this ain’t real and it’s all up in my head 

ohhhh 

change my life around 
ain’t no safe and sound no more 
i’m too far gone it’s wild 
save me from my darkest my darkest shroud

heyzbee:

scream into my face saying welcome to the valley 
people that are around you seem to be uncanny
you’re staying here forever i hope you miss your family
cuz you will never see them again there is no saving

what a warm welcome 
pale white limbs turn into my outcome
things i’ve seen can never be forgot
my eyes have hollowed out i’ve turned to something i’m not, something im not

eden!sempty:

your memories sincere 
but i'm glad that you're not here 

misfit x2
i don't feel shit 
if you miss it fix it 
blood when i hit my limit 
you won't heal the pain up in my lungs (lungs,lungs)
lay the coin on my eyelids when i'm done
done (repeats)

i'm headed beyond the valley to the river of styxx
i don't want to do this 
it's not my instinct 
i can walk you thru this but never again
i don't wanna play pretend

valley of uncanny (feat. devin's world & eden!sempty)

lyrics:

Love of mine 
Someday you will die 
Carry me
To the darkest light

why do I 
even try 
You twist & pull 
Your empty knife 
X2

My Poison Diary 
Don’t you hide from me 
Apples with snakes and teeth 
We all feel incomplete

Take another ride there 
Just another nightmare 
Tryna fall asleep 
All I ever do is lie there 

When you call and you call again
I just wish that I saw it then
Now Im chalking it up
To regret
When you call and you call again
I just wish that I saw it then
It then

Love of mine 
Someday you will die 
Carry me
To the darkest light

why do I 
even try 
You twist & pull 
Your empty knife 
X2

Love of mine 
You’re heart is in 
Perfect form 
The one that 
I adore

love of mine [prod. everestdidthis]

yeah, baby i dont wanna sleep without you
yeah, baby all my dreams are about you

no matter what happens i know ill still think about you

no matter what happens i know ill still think about you

lyrics


under the sea
im growing barnacles out of my feet
ocean turns red from how much i bleed
sea on my skin is turning green
pushed over the deck and i sank
i wouldve rather had walked the plank
all of these faces are showing up blank
on this id rather feel some pain
so i know im alive

the creatures had taken both of my eyes
flakes of my skin were drawn by the tide
im unaware of the last i cried
cant even tell if i live or i died
but ill still survive
and still i fight
for nothing

hands tied by
cables i
wrapped up in
when under
so im trapped here
under wraps dear
its intentional 
i swear
they had known 

im tryna find a way out on my own
the coral that surrounds me has slowly become my home
fish come by just picking at my bones
atlantic waters guide me and my soul out from the cold

under the sea
im growing barnacles out of my feet
ocean turns red from how much i bleed
sea on my skin is turning green
pushed over the deck and i sank
i wouldve rather had walked the plank
all of these faces are showing up blank
on this id rather feel some pain
so i know im alive

what do i know prod. sustain
