Ancient Specimens
guitar chords lyrics
I am long a denizen
Bound in darkness of the deep
Dreaming hollow lonely silent secrets only fossils keep
Petrified they lie aloft my eyes and hide the primal light
Savagely my flesh is softened, two tectonic plates collide
In their wake malicious quakes still oscillate through their divide
Mountains rise up from my grave as my remains are pulverized
Resurrect
The sunken now may rise and step
The risen doomed to sink a wreck
The stars come ‘round again
time to awaken
arise ancient specimens
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh\oh
Drowning in anoxia
arise ancient specimens
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh\oh
Drowning in anoxia
Crushed beneath a squalid sea
Lost in isolation under legions of my progeny
Time for tides upside to turn they cry astride and side by side
Ominously stirring current grips the bones of all the died
Restless in their endless shuffle cross the seabed corpses glide
Beckoning me from my dreams that, I, enraged return to life
Resurrect
The sunken now may rise and step
The risen doomed to sink a wreck
The stars come ‘round again
time to awaken
arise ancient specimens
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh\oh
At R'lyeh I am awakening
For my kind, cast aside, This tempest on the wing
From the Maw hear my call all of my underlings
Hear them sing, "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"
The stars come ‘round again
time to awaken
arise ancient specimens
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh\oh
