What Can Be Safely Written Lyrics - Nile

Great Cthulhu 

Ever the warrior God 

Of all the old ones 

He is the most terrible 

For it is his delight 

To slay and lay waste to everything that lies beneath his taloned feet 

And the very lust to conquer 

What was once free 

Drives him onward across the heavens and through the spheres 

It was he and his spawn 

That defeated the elder things 

Who had long possessed sovereignty of this world 

Before he descended on his gray and leathern wings 

Through the upper gate opened by yog sothoth

On the walls of lost cities 

And in the carvings of madmen 

Who have glimpsed him in their dreams 

Is his image delineated 

Within a tomb protected by great seals 

He lies in death 

Under the weight of the dark waters of the deep 

Yet he dreams still 

And in his dreams continues to rule this world 

For his thoughts master the walls of lesser creatures 

[solo: Dallas] 

When the stars in their endless turnings 

Assume the angles of the same rays they shed down 

In the primordial dawn of the world 

Then does r'lyeh rise upward so the house of Cthulhu 

Emerges from under his watery prison 

The mind of the god waxes strong 

And he sends forth his will to those men 

Who are open to his influence 

The command to release the seals that bind his tomb

[solo: Karl] 

Always the stars 

Never remain in alignment long enough 

For the enslaved men to reach distant r'lyeh 

Before r'yleh sinks once more under the sea 

Severing the bond 

Between the will of Cthulhu 

And the flesh of those he has enthralled 

Leaving them to wail in confusion and despair 

Upon the bosom of the vacant sea 

[solo: Karl]
