An expedition to antarctica From miskatonic university Their findings were just the start Of a journey filled with tragedies
Ancient life forms from immemorial times Unveiling secrets that no one should know Seeking for more professor lake and his party Went further on the ice plateaus Their camp was thrashed, some were brutally murdered And some specimens disappeared When the two found out about their slaughtered peers Truth was finally becoming clear
Pre-chorus Run away, fools Run away, cos
Chorus You're at the mountains of madness A God forgotten site You're at the mountains of madness A hell of snow and ice
The two survivors flew over the mountains And found a city made of stone Within its corridors, on its the walls They saw a story that's been never told
The elder things were the creators of life They were the first to live on planet earth But once shoggoths insurged and cthulhu arrived They have retreated to the underworld There's a greater evil that dwells in these mountains And his power cannot be contained The two were able to escape to warn the entire world To never step into that place again!
Pre-chorus
Chorus
"It is absolutely necessary, for the peace and safety of mankind, that some of earth's dark, dead corners and unplumbed depths be left alone; lest sleeping abnormalities wake to resurgent life, and blasphemously surviving nightmares squirm and splash out of their black lairs to newer and wider conquests. " H. p. Lovecraft "at the mountains of madness"
