1. PROLOGUE

(Instrumental)


2. INNSMOUTH RITUAL

Drag me to the stone
Offer acrid discharge
As from an ulcer
Baneful ritualistic scorn
Raised from the sea
My blood - wasted pittance
A slave, I will not be
Hail dagon


3. ESOTERIC ORDER

Tracing black letters with verdant slime
Ever lusting for the soil's flesh
Bloodletting the filth-crusted masses
The frail, pitiful, misshapen husks
They aimlessly wander, perish
Blindly decomposing, useless cunts
Our liturgy will rid them of pain
Take my tendrilous hand and evolve
Or fall to the mass graves
Our rotten foundations


4. USURPERS

Symbolic shadows fill the streets
Oppressive grasp choking life from stead
His whispers spreading like disease
A specter from the sea
The noisome rancor of the gurgling tides
Drowns the murmurs of our gilled father
Blasphemous discourse of the ocean fills our throats
Atop the salt-shrine
Blasphemous emblems balk at the light
Dripping fingers caress the altar


5. DEFICIENT

Pathetic resilience, washed away in rotting pieces
Putrid splinters
Flayed bone
Rising inanimately
A purposeless resistance against the tide
Our writhing hands unburden the slate
Cleanse the palate of this world


6. DESQUAMATE

My skin writhes
Changes this bestial form
Caving humanity lost to the sea
This is not me
Scaled appendage bursts forth
Stranger, come with me
Let me burn your lungs with salt and brine


7. SEEPING WOMBS

Nothing left
Only sick blackness now
Plagues from the depths ravage the streets
The vessel has brought us his realm
For us to sunder
For us to suckle
Poisoning the veins of the withered race
Nautical spawn summoned forth upon the sun-bleached
We are availed of all
Thus spake dagon


8. EPILOGUE
