Dimmu Borgir

Album:

Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia

A dismal universal hiss, the sound of public scorn 
The brush that sweeps across the spectral fields 
This landscape is not without a sense of epic wonder 
A vast scale that places this sprawling underworld 
Into a realm of frames 


With a blood-storm fading into the distance 
Floating without directions over this smouldering landscape 
Caught in a moment of transformation 
These shades of anatomic malignant nature 
Approached on another in an unpleasant way 
Frozen in the act of speech, desperate to express it's state 
Created in a shape to accommodate a wide variety of demonic forms 
The realm of the benighted aristocracy of evil most pure 


This is where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep 


Emerged from the depths of the earth gasps 
It rages against mankind, to annihilate the earth and worse 
It spills the blood like rain, the beauty of death it represents 


Devouring their flesh with a razorblade smile 
Genes would still blindly carry on smouldering ember of hell 
Limned with gold leaf, the scarlet brush 
That sweep all traces of time, place and pattern 


Total death in every nation 
Monuments of vanquished civilization 
Just as brilliantly removed ruthlessly eliminated 
The cornerstone of human emotions 
Has now been drained away 
I saw death of a most uncommon nature
