Astorolus: The Great Octopus
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the folds of mythology
Never died, never born
Demented God, a monstrosity
Oh, you block the sun
Octopus, the point of no return
You're the hunger, the one
There you wait, for moon and man to fall
From the wall of the world
Guardian of Nyx
Epic in the abyss
At the Earthfall
There's a mountain of skulls
You swallow the Earth
Astorolus
Astorolus
Guardian of Nyx
Epic in the abyss
At the Earthfall
There's a mountain of skulls
You swallow the Earth
Astorolus
Astorolus
Spearhead, beak and tusk
Your arms, like silver in dusk
Into the depths we are thrust
Astorolus
Astorolus
You will swallow us
Great octopus
