Weak

Weak as I am
Chased by beings strange
Called from the darker heavens
Pursuing me through unseen plains
I run

Weak as I am
I call upon Yog-Sothoth
The Keeper, Key and Gate
To prevent my mind's loss
I pray

Weak as I am
I gaze in lurid dream
Upon the World of Seven Suns
Court of the Mighty Messenger obscene
I scream

Weak as I am
Hounded by the Shining Hunter
I call out Cthulhu's name
And plead for some succour
I cry

Weak as I am
I no longer care
And offer myself to them
A willing sacrifice rare
I wait

Weak as I am
I learn my true identity
Out of the oceans deep
The Deep Ones welcome me
I am
