Beak on Bone & the Red Mantle of the King (Architeuthis Dux)

Dragged in, torn down, hooks into skin Gasping, struggling, no way to win Beak on bone the devouring begins The red mantle of this king Through the surface of the water The moon reflects a castle keep A fire burning till the morning Never to see the sun again To miss the warmth of dry land To never taste oxygen again Dragged in, torn down, hooks into skin Gasping, struggling no way to win Beak on bone the devouring begins The red mantle of this king Architeuthis heard the splashing From its darkened resting place A cold ocean under moonlight A tentacled embrace Architeuthis Dux The red mantle of the king Once thought a mythical beast Now the truth I sing!
