Internal Suffering - Outside Dwellers lyrics
[Internal Suffering - Outside Dwellers lyrics]
The hour was night when the
Star called my attention
I hadn't seen it before since it
Was covered by a large rug
Finally, I saw it was a star
Of five points of big size
Decorated with ornamental designs kind
Of cabalistic drawing!
Then, I took a chalk and
Copied carefully the whole design
I sat within it and
Expected something to happened
So I recalled invocation rituals
But nothing took place
Several minutes later I remembered the
Words and spoke them gravely:
"ph'nglui mglwinafh cthulhu r'lyeh
Wgah'nagl fhtagn"
Instantly, the most astonishing
Phenomenon occurred:
"I found myself looking upon
A nocturnal landscape
Desert vegetation sandy rocks the place was
Spare-of caverns snow capped mountains
A landscape that couldn't have
Been found anywhere"
Life seemed to be going on
Within this weird aliens world
Rattlesnake crawling
Sharp-eyed hawk soaring overhead
The Gila monster!
In the meanwhile
Bats came out of the caverns' mouth
Then, a kind of human
Being made it's appearance:
"Rough of skin - emaciated
Abnormally eyes and ears
Ribs showing through it's skin
Outside Dwellers!"
Little by little an enormous creature
Appeared at first a tentacle
Then another - half a dozen!
An eldritch head showed dimly:
Horror!ghastly travesty head
Neckless body mass of jelly flesh!
Horror!ghastly travesty head
Neckless body mass of jelly flesh!
"I realised the thing had a great perception
For it saw me from the beginning
Fixed it's eyes
Upon me and began to move rapidly towards me
Through the darkening landscape
Total paralysis
Was this the ultimate illusion?"
Little by little an enormous creature
Appeared at first a tentacle
Then another - half a dozen!
An eldritch head showed dimly
Horror!ghastly travesty head
Neckless body mass of jelly flesh!
Star called my attention
I hadn't seen it before since it
Was covered by a large rug
Finally, I saw it was a star
Of five points of big size
Decorated with ornamental designs kind
Of cabalistic drawing!
Then, I took a chalk and
Copied carefully the whole design
I sat within it and
Expected something to happened
So I recalled invocation rituals
But nothing took place
