Lyrics
I hath dreamed bleak and grim, desolate visions of the pre-human serpent volk
And communed with long-dead reptiles
Silently watching through the ages in cold, curious apathy
The unending sorrows and suffering of an abysmal humankind
I dare not again surrender to the deep sleep which ever beckons me
Lest I in dread
Shudder at the nameless things
That may at this very moment
Be crawling and lurking
At the slimy edges of my consciousness
Slithering forth from the bowels of their infernal pits
Worshiping their ancient stone idols and carving their detestable likenesses
On subterranean obelisks of blood soaked granite
I await the day when the claws of doom shall rise
To drag down in their reeking talons the weary and hopeless remnants
Of a jaded, decayed, war-despairing mankind
Of a day when the earth shall open wide and the black, bottomless
Yawning abyss engulfs the arrogant civilizations of man
Chthonic retribution shall ascend
Amidst universal pandemonium
And those who slither and crawl shall rise again once more to inherit the earth
And communed with long-dead reptiles
Silently watching through the ages in cold, curious apathy
The unending sorrows and suffering of an abysmal humankind
I dare not again surrender to the deep sleep which ever beckons me
Lest I in dread
Shudder at the nameless things
That may at this very moment
Be crawling and lurking
At the slimy edges of my consciousness
Slithering forth from the bowels of their infernal pits
Worshiping their ancient stone idols and carving their detestable likenesses
On subterranean obelisks of blood soaked granite
I await the day when the claws of doom shall rise
To drag down in their reeking talons the weary and hopeless remnants
Of a jaded, decayed, war-despairing mankind
Of a day when the earth shall open wide and the black, bottomless
Yawning abyss engulfs the arrogant civilizations of man
Chthonic retribution shall ascend
Amidst universal pandemonium
And those who slither and crawl shall rise again once more to inherit the earth
