about

At The Mountains of Madness is the "be all, end all" of the lovecraftian cosmology. SPOILER ALERT! The song sums up the book narrative.

lyrics

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"
