At The Mountains Of Madness Songtext / Lyric

Expedition setting forth
to Antartic shores and earth
Mapping unknown worlds of cold
Seeking knowledge of the old We were all too sure
Heading for the southern pole
Never knew what we'd find
Under ice as old as time Wanderers of distant stars
Bred of science from afar
Came from life beyond our minds
Before the dawn of mankind

Following the signs
Into halls of frozen time
To a dark labyrinth
At the mountains of madness

The great halls of the Old Ones
Lie awaiting their return

Sleeping creatures of the depths
Viscous blobs of stinking death

Shoggoths shelter from the sun
The Elder Things are dead and gone
Hear this warning, keep away
Leave them to their halls to stay
