Great Cthulhu, dead and dreaming

In my dreams I feel the creeping presence of an alien mind
Tearing at my sanity and leaving me half mad and blind
Drifting through the weed-choked ways to where the watery shadows of
Ancient spectres fill my head with overwhelming visions of

R'lyeh, sunken city
Great Cthulhu, dead and dreaming

Massive marble slabs surrounding moss-encrusted brazen doors
Coated with a slime that speaks of countless aeons far from shore
I can hear the whispers of the worshippers of things unseen
Chanting in an ancient tongue, the words I somehow know to mean

No more do I dare to dream, I study now the stars above
Watch for the alignment that will bring the resurrection of

R'lyeh, sunken city
Great Cthulhu, dead and dreaming
R'lyeh, sunken city
Great Cthulhu, dead and dreaming
