In the Depths of R'lyeh
He who sleeps, ageless, out of time Awakens now from restless sleep Stirring from the depths of his aqueous tomb At the sound of the gathering Of the neophytese of doom Chants in unknown tongues Echoes through accursed halls The great eyes open... The very cosmos shudder At the awakening of the ungod Arising from the watery chasm As his acolytes of doom Lurch forth from ebbing tides As the world's doom Arises from the deep And they chant... Ja! Ja! Cthulhu Ftaghu!

Cold skies rain black ichor upon the dead dripping city Black spires loom ominous above dead and barren earth Fouled with the blood of the wretched Who once dwelt in this accursed city Still they dwell in unlife Within the shadows The damned Roaming through shadowed hall of decrepit stone Ornate with carbing of horrid forms Depicted in abhorrent rites Tell of horrors which should never be Morbid and grotesque in their very existence Shambling forms lurch forth from writhing shadows Gathered before the monstrous cikon Chanting in tongues unknown to man Arms spread wide beneath a moonless sky Evoking the essence of their unholy god Who dwells within the beeps Visions come to me of what has always been My place with the wretched Who dwell in eternal shadows Fated to forever dwell among the damned In that accursed city The dead dripping city

Gazing down into the boundless abyss From the edge of the world Staring into the stygian blackness That exists between the stars The basalt gates of the underdark open Monstrous forms of untold horror Lumber forth from the lightless depths The ancient unholy gods of whom men dare not dream Emerging from chasms choked with the bones of untold dead and countless unhallowed centuries The unholy abominations arise To devour all light At the edge of the abyss I stand Staring into that black carrion pit As the world dies A black moon rises Heralding the end

An ashen sun descends into frozen skies Sinking behind a veil of eternal night Haunting shadows drape the earth in horror Serpent vines of despondend earth crawl Where no light hath shone but for that of the moon And once lush valleys shall wither and die And rise hight with the blood of man And new mountains shall torn from the bones of countless dead Living shadows shall arise Where no light hath shone but for that of the moon

Fallen into shadow Beyond time and death Into the realm of darkness and ruin Into the unending gloom of grim and malefic shades Transcendental descent into the bleak omniscent darkness Where flames of woe burn unending Exalted realm of euphoric grief Return to the origin of darkness in purest form Fallen into shadow Vast unknown oblivion of blissful misery Foul from my eyes gleams an ancient malice As I return to reign my clandestine throne Eternally... ...fallen into shadow
