The Thing That Should Not Be 

Messenger of Fear in sight
 Dark deception kills the light

 Hybrid children watch the sea
 Pray for Father, roaming free

   fearless Wretch
   insanity
   He watches
   lurking beneath the sea
   great Old One
   forbidden site
   He searches
   Hunter of the Shadows is rising
   immortal
   in madness You dwell

 Crawling Chaos, underground
 cult has summoned, twisted sound
 Out from ruins once possessed
 fallen city, living death

   fearless Wretch
   insanity
   He watches
   lurking beneath the sea
   timeless sleep
   has been upset
   He awakens
   Hunter of the Shadows is rising
   immortal
   in madness You dwell

 Not dead which eternal lie
 stranger eons Death may die
 drain you of your sanity
 face The Thing That Should Not Be

   fearless Wretch
   insanity
   He watches
   lurking beneath the sea
   great Old One
   forbidden site
   He searches
   Hunter of the Shadows is rising
   immortal
   in madness You dwell.
