Mountains of Madness Lyrics

Antarctic expedition to unchartered land
Exploration in the name of science
To bring discovery beyond our wildest dreams

Lost necropolis trapped under the ice

Hell's my destiny, fear's consuming me
My ambition drives me on to find what lies beyond
I am not afraid, no I'm not afraid
In this frozen waste where the madness reigns

At the edge of the world, at the mountains of madness
It's the end of the world see me drowning in sadness
At the mountains of madness

Snow-covered mountains, I stand and gaze in awe
Thinking what it is that lived here before

Hell's my destiny, fear's consuming me
Still I'm marching on through the ice and snow
I am not afraid, no I'm not afraid
Wind beats in my face, reach the mountain gate

"They were evil things- mountains of madness
Whose farther slopes looked out over
Some accursed ultimate abyss." (H.P. Lovecraft)
