03. Tsatthoggua Arise
By Unlife · Alternative Metal · From the album No Life Matters
Slumbering beneath the frozen earth
Ancient coils wrapped in dreaming hate
I carved your sigil into broken stone
Fingers bleeding on the altar gate
Deep in the earth he waits
A mountain of flesh and dread
Ancient eyes half closed
Dreaming of the unsaid
Slime trails on the stone
A chill in the air so cold
The moon hangs cracked like a dying eye
Over salt and ash and bone
I crawl to your cavern in the shale
Where no living thing has gone
Slime trails on the stone
A chill in the air so cold
Tsathoggua arise
From the black abyss of sleep
Tsathoggua arise
Let the frozen world weep
Tsathoggua (Tsathoggua)
The slumbering god of night
Tsathoggua (Tsathoggua)
Beyond all human light
Open the mouth in the mountain
We hear the stomp below
The floor is learning to tremble
He’s coming up slow
The faithful starved in the shattered vaults
Their prayers turned to frost
But I kneel before your drowsy crown
Counting every soul I've lost
Fungus on his hide
A story untold inside
Tsathoggua arise
From the black abyss of sleep
Tsathoggua arise
Let the frozen world weep
Tsathoggua (Tsathoggua)
The slumbering god of night
Tsathoggua (Tsathoggua)
Beyond all human light
Open the mouth in the mountain
We hear the stomp below
The floor is learning to tremble
He’s coming up slow
