7. Unleash the Kraken (5:19)
Oh yeah...
Oh you've never felt this way before
Never thought you'd be that overcome with
What is slowly taking hold of you
Oh arousal, heat and fire
There's excitement you would never feel
In the rut they call the way things go
A wind-up toy they won't release
It will go perpetually until it's broke
When days are cold and lonely
And you feel like the only one
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Lucifugous sensation
Unleash the kraken
Unleash the kraken
A promise: knightly accolades
Contenders falling one by one
A trophy in a no-win game?
Now the sky is spilling fire
Lightning strikes, I am thunderbolt, the mercury
I am the tentacle divinely ordained
Time and again, for way too long you've been in misery
We'll make you whole again
When days are cold and lonely
And you are the one and only
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Lucifugous sensation
Unleash the kraken
Oh yeah...
When days are cold and lonely
And you feel like the only one
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
We are calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Omnifugous sensation
Unleash the kraken
Oh you've never felt this way before
Never thought you'd be that overcome with
What is slowly taking hold of you
Oh arousal, heat and fire
There's excitement you would never feel
In the rut they call the way things go
A wind-up toy they won't release
It will go perpetually until it's broke
When days are cold and lonely
And you feel like the only one
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Lucifugous sensation
Unleash the kraken
Unleash the kraken
A promise: knightly accolades
Contenders falling one by one
A trophy in a no-win game?
Now the sky is spilling fire
Lightning strikes, I am thunderbolt, the mercury
I am the tentacle divinely ordained
Time and again, for way too long you've been in misery
We'll make you whole again
When days are cold and lonely
And you are the one and only
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Lucifugous sensation
Unleash the kraken
Oh yeah...
When days are cold and lonely
And you feel like the only one
Divining the sound in the air
We're calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
We are calling for you
We're gonna turn on the night
Red is the moon
Strange captivation
Omnifugous sensation
