We used to think that the Kraken was just a legend, the dark and twisted Scandanavian sea mist...

Decomposition of factors Multiply first and last after Product of sum is the centre Eater of voids, the planet’s tormenter Ripping the cosmos to shreds Military activated, release the warheads Reciprocal fractions Actualize opposite reactions Look up to the sky, see tendrils stretched far Phosphorescent arms extinguishing...the stars Civilized diplomacy is rendered obsolete Pandemic of mass panic is spreading through...the streets Seeing their extinction palpable above The masses turn to all that they had been deprived of But the kraken acts regardless of the actions on this dot Its infinite intelligence has not a second thought Decomposition of factors Multiply first and last after Product of sum is the centre Eater of voids, the planet’s tormenter Ripping the cosmos to shreds Military activated, release the warheads Reciprocal fractions Actualize opposite reactions

The great old ones are dead, devoured by the origin of all. A breath exhaled, tendrils out, the empty light grasping, illuminating, suffocates all preceding it, creating an instant of perceived unity.

Identical system Infinite solution Overlapping lines rise and run Ordered operations Balance the equations A million planets fit into the sun The kraken has arisen Unfurling from its prison The black hole hidden well from the light Recompense upon us A sacrificial disgust Our disbelief won’t save us from the rite Destroyer comes The destroyer comes The destroyer comes And we succumb Destroyer comes The destroyer comes The destroyer comes And we succumb Intercept equation Points across the nation Military fighting to survive General form graphing Coordinates are crashing The armoured tanks are put in overdrive Tentacles unfurling Gravitation blurring As stars are smashed together right and left Screaming total agony Waste far as the eye can see Universe is stretched and then compressed The kraken has arisen Unfurling from its prison The black hole hidden well from the light Recompense upon us A sacrificial disgust Our disbelief won’t save us from the rite

Behind the dark, the void calls all within itself, a black hole, a vacuum of negative space, the purgatory of the universe. Cephalopod, eater of the void, destroyer of the worlds, father of the old ones, ender of four billion suns...

Cephalopod 02:52
Cephalopod, Eater of the void Cephalopod, Destroyer of the worlds Black holes engulf; the universe is torn Kraken (sea mist) a cosmic whirlpool Cryptid, revealed, as fates’ threads unspool Centre, unknown, the universe heart Unfurled, spreading, pervasive and dark Red stars - explode! Technetium spreads Open, eyelids! And see up ahead, two Million years pass, the half-life is met, but Red stars carry these isotopes yet Cephalopod, Eater of the void Cephalopod, Destroyer of the worlds Cephalopod, Eater of the void Cephalopod, Destroyer of the worlds Sixty thousand repetitions make One truth, old ones, the atmospheres break Empty, grasping, and gasping for air Perceive the void but still unaware Ender of the four hundred billion Suns rise, time ends, omnipotent one Swan song, time-space, continuum fail Matter ceasing, the coffin’s last nail Cephalopod, Eater of the void Cephalopod, Destroyer of the worlds Black holes engulf; the universe is torn
7.
A timeless eye perceives, unfeeling, omniscient and sociopathic, emanating a curiously detached cruelty as undulating tentacles weave in a ponderous ballet, transcending light and dark; leaving a blue phosphorence in its wake as it traverses the cosmic ocean...

Discrepancy 02:23
We must resolve the discrepancy Between quantum mechanics and general relativity We must resolve the discrepancy Between quantum mechanics and general relativity Planets are colliding Large-scale laws apply Orbit in ellipsis With Einstein they comply But scaling is subjective Compared to giant squid The planets are miniscule Diminish off the grid We must resolve the discrepancy Between quantum mechanics and general relativity We must resolve the discrepancy Between quantum mechanics and general relativity Quantum state mechanics ap- ply to both extremes The dictates of the old law Affect the in-between Leaps through cosmic systems Allow for the unknown, elec- Trons can influence Existence - overthrown

The galaxies unfurl as the nautiluses delicately extricate themselves from their shells. From their funnels come toxic stardust. The creatures undulate in hypnotic uniformity, red, black, red, black: blood and night in constant contrast. They have heard their master's call.
10.
Look Up 03:12
Eater of the stars With your mantle gleaming Master of the void While the suns are dreaming Cruel is the unknown Watch the cosmos bleeding Sucked inside the dark While all life is screaming Look up in the night Blood freeze in your veins No-one sees our plight All that's left is pain Asteroids will fall For their paths are blocked as Tentacles entwine This pale blue dot Day turns into dark As our sun turns ashen Its flames illuminate From within the kraken Look up in the night Blood freeze in your veins No-one sees our plight All that's left is pain

The great whale traveled from Mars to Sirius; there, he was slaughtered by the cephalopod, first flayed alive by its razor-sharp hooked tentacles, then ripped to shreds and flung in pieces across the galaxy.

Hear the war drums Break the silence As the everstorm increases in violence Hear the wail of Crisis warning There is no dawn after this darkness forming Hear the thunder Of the earthquakes Asteroid belt beating planet ‘til we break Hear the rushing Of the tide as Two thousand foot waves are worse than suicide See the lightning In the night sky Effervescent colours, the backlight as we die See a tendril Like a bad trip Dragging down the planet like a kraken would a ship See its glowing Above the battle Remnants of the stars inside illuminate its mantle See it coming This is the Old One A bloody sacrifice is all that we’ve become This is the end Of life as we know it This is the start Of our demise This is the end Of life as we know it This is the start Of our demise Hear the war drums Break the silence As the everstorm increases in violence Hear the wail of Crisis warning There is no dawn after this darkness forming Hear the thunder Of the earthquakes Asteroid belt beating planet ‘til we break Hear the rushing Of the tide as Two thousand foot waves are worse than suicide See the lightning In the night sky Effervescent colours, the backlight as we die See a tendril Like a bad trip Dragging down the planet like a kraken would a ship See its glowing Above the battle Remnants of the stars inside illuminate its mantle See it coming This is the Old One A bloody sacrifice is all that we’ve become This is the end Of life as we know it This is the start Of our demise This is the end Of life as we know it This is the start Of our demise
13.
A conflict of the highest order of magnitude or execution of the masses' reformation in the skies showes the debt we hold and young alike must pay recompence; shillings fall from the hands of the guilty, and they fall into their graven images of gold and silversion updated, self-destruct commencing a song to the great old ones, the dead old ones, slaughtered on the shores of Sirius.
