Not dead but dreaming
The elder god stirring
Beneath the waves
Crashing
Thrashing
Beyond the grave

Godless, nameless
Devil's caress
Eyes of fire
Burn with desire
For human flesh

"Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!
Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!"


The great beast
Will come to feast
So, beware the song
He rests atop your bones

The tidal malice
What we bear to witness
The hungry maw
Gnawing
Clawing
Answer the call

Terror, horror
Wayward sailors
Cut the wire
Unholy sire
Consuming flesh

"Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!
Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!"


The great beast
Will come to feast
So, beware the song
He rests atop your bones

Churning at the heart of the earth
Slumbering in throes of rebirth
Devilment and sacraments
Communion and nourishment

"Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!
Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fhtagn!"


The great beast
Will come to feast
So, beware the song
He rests atop your bones

Ia
Ia
Not
Dead
But
Dreaming
