Ensorcelled By Khaos

[Words: Ihsahn/ Music & arrangements: Samoth & Ihsahn]

In an endless maze begotten
To dead ends led by fools
I sought a plague
For those who smiled at walls
In humble fear

Yet, belligerent ways came to an end
No war could ease my hunger
By craving death I was
To darkness reborn

No sacrifice too great
Caught in another maze
Truly endless
Still
This maze is mine

No peace for me
No peace I seek
My quest goes far beyond

No sacrifice too great
Caught in another maze
Truly endless
Still
This maze is mine

I hail the greatest fall
Dark is the spirit of my token
Dark is my call

Still craving
Still torn
Hear me master
Of this realm to which I was reborn

"Bearer of my stigma. Thou art of me.
Yet, claim no gift, but guidance.
For I am the giver of temptation.
Thou art the executor of Thy rewards"

The cosmic forces driving me
More noble, more free
Love and hate and all in between
I greet them all in ecstasy

Take me

Venus
Seduce me
Mars
Possess me
Tear my soul from sanity

No sacrifice too great
Caught in another maze
Truly endless
Still this maze is mine
And I am thine
