I. Mantle Ghosts Beneath the sunken deeps Frigid waters tip the plates A claw of magma seeps Rends the crust to giant slates
Convection slowly creeps Sends new mountains through the gates An ancient psyche seeps Mends helices towards new fates
Nothing stays entombed forever A dying gravestone weeps Blends the waters, carves, awaits, Sows the lakes the ice had severed The tomb no longer sleeps Fed by fire it stirs, creates
Buried worlds shall rise up, rise up Buried worlds shall rise up high Thaw and rise up, rise up, rise up Thaw and rise up, rise up high
Where Skaði's shadow falls Life grinds to an icy halt Where Vulcan's boiling crawls Oceans burn and heave and fault
But where they meet and kiss and jostle A chthonic tendril sprawl Cathedrals rise of pure basalt Mantle ghosts, tectonic fossils A hellish glow illuminates the glacial vault
More than rock shall rise up, rise up More than rock shall rise up high Race to rise up, rise up, rise up Race to rise up, rise up high
II. The Building of R'lyeh Virgin channels draw in, breathe out Gnawing through the cryosphere Stygian mollusks swarm and reach out Life explodes the hydrosphere
Bioluminescent cities light up Underneath a frozen sky Sing and light the austral night up Rise to scrape the ice up high
Eldritch valleys rise up Eldritch valleys rebound and rise up, rise up high
Nautilus delves, clad in crystal Sepia and urchin breed Teuthis' hunger grows, abyssal Octopods on dendrites feed
Bioluminescent cities light up Underneath a frozen sky Sing and light the austral night up Rise to break the ice up high
And something wakes in the deep…
III. Pangea Proxima Landmasses coalesce Long gone the holocene extinction As hypercanes ravage and bless The coastal swamps with biomass The benthos' grand egress Towards terrestrial distinction
A postdiluvian octopia Invertebrate cornucopia Arachnoid bodies rise Infest their telluric new utopia
IV. Metamorphogenesis As lichens rise to giant woods Octopus take to the trees As overlords of lands and seas Symbionts inside their hoods
Nine brains fire, reboot their neurons- Spectral eyes and thinking skin Revel in new-found endurance Cogitate and join their kin
An empire shall rise up, rise up Shape-shifting hives that never die Master of the new earth rise up From abyss to open sky
Kraken and Leviathan Evolve to polypotency Molecular their mimicry Bulging tools from myosin
Tardigrades conjoin the membrains Polypoid biotechnology Medusoid immortality The dermis cast in chloroplasts
Like a tide they rise up, rise up Like a tide they rise up high On piles of bones they rise up, rise up On piles of bones they rise up high
On primate fossils they rise up On our remains they rise up high With a vengeance they rise up With a vengeance they rise up high
V. Octragon Tentacles spread Cilia flare The octopus take to the air
As overlords of earth and sky The elders glide The young ones fly
As polyp seeds They pair and tear As fleshy leaves They soar up high
Find burning needs In starry skies Where novae glare And planets die
This world won't last forever In time, the only way is up Illuminating silent winds, The coleoidea dream of nebulae
Billowing iridescence Brings a thousand maws with fangs
Staring lanterns light the night Fleshy domes float to the sky Leathery bells chime in the dark The dragons of their aeon
VI. Star Spawn Coral spies rise up, rise up Stratospheric colonies Make the waters rise up, rise up Shun the earth, escape and freeze
Winged ammonites from the dawn of time Launch ships of ice to rise up high Primeval aliens in their prime To conquer worlds beyond the skyTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
