Lyrics
He Is The Gate
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.
Seventy steps, downward the spiral
Into the fiery crypts, dreamlands ahead
Seven hundred steps, further down
To the gates of deeper slumber
Seek knowledge in the forests
Find answers among fur and claws
Seek knowledge by the priest
Find answers carved in stone
Ravished by black wings
Seventy steps, downward the spiral
Into the fiery crypts, dreamlands ahead
Seven hundred steps, further down
To the gates of deeper slumber
Strange harbours hide strange sailors
Unknown oars strike unknown waters
Black galley's stench-ridden corridors
With purple sails set on lunar course
Witness the moon beast procession
Seek knowledge in Nyarlathotep
Witness the vile conquest of claws
Seek knowledge on the isle of oriab
Ngranek reveals the countenance
A vision of the outer gods
Night gaunts summoned from darkness
Disturbing this moment of clarity
Seventy steps, downward the spiral
Death lies behind, enlightenment ahead
Seven hundred steps, further down
Unbound from the burden of life
Onward to celephais
