Lyrics Giant Squid

Giant Squid

Panthalassa (Lampetra Tridentata)

The dreams are upon me again with impossible seas filled to the brim with equally impossible things with preposterous amounts of teeth

Hereto I command an immortal ship and all ten hands on deck

Standing abreast with the finest men, each thick headed and hell bent on seeing this through for reasons all their own

Patching the sails with the shirts off their back, I need not sail alone the highest crests will fall like the rest under our battered hull

The beast filled troughs our bow will cross atop their cartilage skulls

The chill of the wind carries the hymn of things sounding disappointingly human

I'm quick to remind my men to ignore these beauties with green skin

A sure sign their blood is too thin, singing lampreys that will suck you dry

This sea has no end

Each of you will give in

Only a matter of time before I bring you all bliss

The dreams are upon me again with impossible seas filled to the brim with equally impossible things with preposterous amounts of teeth

Hereto I command an immortal ship and all ten hands on deck

Standing abreast with the finest men, each thick headed and hell bent on seeing this through for reasons all their own
