Dm 
Cthulu is sleeping and he's dreaming of revenge 
       A 
and when he wakes up our world will end 
          A#                                           A 
and a new one, a darker one will begin 

Dm 
the sky is crying, it's raining blood 
             A 
and the rivers will rise, the rivers will flood 
       A#                                                         A 
and everything we love will be washed away 

      Dm                                       A 
the mountains of trash they're piling up 
           A#                       A                  
they're growing higher towards the sun 
                 G                                                        A 
when they reach it they'll catch fire and we will burn 

Dm                               A 
the ocean is filled with terrible things 
          A#                                     A 
and a monster will rise from it's depths one day 
       G                                             A 
and take us in it's arms under the waves 

                                 Dm, C, A 
what are you gonna doooooo to stop it? 
                                 Dm, C, A 
what are you gonna doooooo before you die? 
            Dm                C                    A 
are you hoping for a hero, are you wishing for some luck 
            Dm                        C             A 
is your head down in the sand too afraid to bring it up? 

                  A#                                       A 
or are you just throwing logs onto the fire? 
             A#                                                    A 
are you gouging out your eyes so you can't see? 
             A#                                             A 
are you locked inside your room always staring at a screen? 
             A#                                        A 
are you telling yourself it can't be as bad as it seems? 

           Dm        C           A 
no it's not, it's so much worse 
              A#                                  A 
and the only question is: what's gonna get us first? 
             Dm                          C                      A 
you can hope and you can pray that these things all go away 
                    A#                              A 
but they will catch up with us one day 
                    A#                              A 
yes they will catch up with us one day
