The Illithid: Flayer of Minds Lyrics


From the far realm

That I am

Wherein madness

Bends all things

My endless knowledge

Transcends all space and time

All time

Come into the void

I have you a gift

Face to face with horror

Caress it, open the rift

Unintentional dimensional gate

You've connected our planes

All that I was longing for

A new battle, a new war

Underneath of your town

A new flora flourishes underground

Poison vines and spores are abound

Without sound

Rats, the rats

Are now part of my hive

The hive

Intelligence will rise

Psionic powers that are mine

Control beings of any kind

Swarm, swarm

To create one form

This form

Not intended to alarm

Acting out as my spies

While my numbers multiply

Whoa

Ceremorphosis

My larva in your ear

My larva clouds your eyes

Eating away at your mind

Now attached to your spine

Ceremorphosis

Ten years in the brine

A cannibal all the while

Now that you are of my kind

A perfect specimen, so vile

Everything I wanted and more

Such a precious reward

Summon the Demogorgon

So thirsty for human blood

So obedient my loyal minion

Now go forth and tear them asunder

The pack that is the flayed

Their thoughts decay

No longer will they show emotion

My thralls at my disposal

Collected, I led the way

Their flesh splayed

To make a sick amalgamation

My thrall abominable, indomitable

Living, breathing, hatred

Twisted, churning, golem

Back, I'm into my past

Searching for my

Former glory

Taken so

So long ago

Have I not learned

From anything

How can I right all of these wrongs

A twist of fate rests in my palm

I wear the battle scars carved on my heart proudly

The hourglass takes heed

It listens to me

Allowing me to be

Unchained and free

Unchained and free
