Architeuthis - Tourniquet

There is a beast that does exist

Not just a myth

The facts persist

Known from the dead

That washed ashore

From modern graphs

To old folklore

And yet one never seen alive

Though scientists and divers strive

Architeuthis

Show yourself to us

(Among the largest on the planet

The giant squid, the Architeuthis

How can this massive creature)

Escape the hordes of searching eyes?

Escape the wisdom of the wise?

Escape the sonar, the bathyscaphe?

Returns with countless plotted graphs?

Architeuthis

Show your self to us

I know a God I’ve never seen

Not nearly just a wishful dream

Alive but not for us to see

But living in the hearts of men

So great is his love for us

Yet many seem to look in vain

If you will set aside your pride

Your arrogance facade

Then you can enter into grace

Architeuthis

Show yourself to us

Let us gaze at your haunting frame

We know you’re real

No longer conceal

What bloated corpses already reveal

(The last of the giant living mysteries)

Architeuthis

Show yourself to us
