The gates to my subconscious, open wide 

Hear and remember, the incantations I recite 

Reveal the power, no longer known by man 

Possess, before the ancients rule the earth once again 



Beneath the seas and skies of the human mind 

The abyss yawns wide before me 

Uncertain what truth of lies I will find 

Appear and share my wisdom, for I know thee 



Descend into the foul places of death 

I fear for my flesh, for I have seen my epitaph 

The price I pay on this lonely journey 

Is softened and I hope the gods will have mercy 



From a time before a time a cold voice has spoken 

From a land beyond the stars I evoke thee 

In exchange for wisdom, what evil have I woken 

What terrible faith shall consume me? 



I've seen the future 

I've seen the past 

I've seen the sight of whom causeth horror 

I've seen my place of rest 



I've travelled on spheres, I've seen things 

Beyond imagination 

The things I have learned are the most pure revelation 

Obliterated are the lines of my life 

My blood cries out as I make my last sacrifice 



I cannot see, I cannot move, 'cause sight is failing me 

Knowing that the beasts of the spaces claim my blood 

My blood turns black but frightened I cannot be 

The bargain is sealed, the price to pay is to rot 



Testimony of the ancients
