Deep in the earth, darkness surrounds a glowing light of crimson
And a faint pulsing sound
Aeons entombed, like night darkness enshrouds
Waiting for the time and place when it will be found
Time on its side
Waiting patiently to arise
Older than the father and mother of the universe
Older than the sister and brother of time, an ageless curse
Older than any other, older and so much worse
Traveling across the galaxies
A blight on all, nothing but a disease
Trapped deep in the earth a billion years ago
It can never die, it does not live, but it grows
Time on its side
Waiting patiently to arise
♪
Time on its side
Waiting patiently to arise
Older than the father and mother of the universe
Older than the sister and brother of time, an ageless curse
Older than any other, older and so much worse
Calling out to a host, man or animal
An imitation, a thing wholly unnatural
Time on its side
Waiting patiently to arise
Feeding on life, an eater devouring corrupted souls
In the deep, a sleeper like smoldering coals
Drawing in its prey slowly, it's in no rush
Upon release, it will spread like fire through dry brush
Time on its side
Waiting patiently to arise
