Flute song rings out through an empty chasm
Canyons of bone and flesh mark the landscape
Creatures of dark, lying in wait
Gnawing at their own limbs
An inconceivable hunger known beyond time and space
Drums beat
Eyes swarm a many tentacled beast
Amorphous, bubbling with hatred
At the centre of infinity
Within spiralling black vortices
The accursed flute song drives them to dance
The Sultan of Darkness watches on
Bodiless mouths float and chatter
The Death of All Dreams
It awaits, it breathes
Atrocities unseen
Thousand eyes, gnashing teeth
The Death of All Dreams
When I awake my vision is obscured
Thick black mist covers the house
Haunting music, noise and chanting
Emits from deep within the darkness
I can only sit and feel sheer terror as I see one eye open in the darkness
And then another
Within each eye I see myself screaming
The first eye closes and my body goes cold
I feel myself go numb
As the second eye begins to close my reality turns dark
The eye snaps shut and I exist no more
SILENT WITNESS TO THE DAWN OF TIME
Deep within
The Maw of Time
The swirling abyss opens wide
Stretching and warping like it was breathing
A colossal beast of power
I can see a new world
Atoms collide with atoms collide with atoms
Amorphous, formless yet meticulously created
Before time began
Gaseous clouds spill forth daemons of ether
Horrendous, gnashing teeth attached to shapeless, faceless forms
Galaxies appear one by one
Torn from the fabric of the cosmos
Servants of Azathoth slave away in incomprehensible darkness
Feasting on stars
From afar giant hands lurk out of the mist
Gelatinous eyes follow
Attached to a withered husk of a body
As if incomplete, void of breath
The Pale Beast, God of The Labyrinth comes forth
A silent witness to the dawn of time
