Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk

[Words, music & arrangements: Ihsahn.] 
[4:29] 


Close your eyes and gaze into 
this realm that I reveal. 
See where eternities are born. 
Close your eyes, behold the powers 
of the broken seal. 
See the liars bound in thorns. 


Fear 
and you shall fall. 
Weakness suffocates your will. 
Dare, 
yet never fail. 
Wisdom guides the one, 
the strong who can defy 
Death. 


So I speak, though, am I heard...? 
Wasting visions on a world of blinded fools. 


Still I scorn 
the vacant contradiction of life, 
if only to bewilder. 
The final truth shall speak my name. 


Thus spake the nightspirit. 


Nightspirit, spirit, 
spirit, embrace my soul. 
[Repeat]
