Dimmu Borgir – Chess with the Abyss
Audio Published on April 20, 2019
Lyrics
Old dreams return
Disillusioned I yearn
Am I buried beneath sand and clay?
The caress of cold soil
With limbs crippled to the coil
Locked inside a nightmare womb
Tarnished and grief stricken
Emptiness within a void
Longing for the sun to shine
To discourage the demonoid
Salvation!
Darkness reborn!
We seem to keep fading away
Holding on to that last final sway
A doctrine of self salvation
Darkness reborn on resurrection day?
Stagnating in dead waters
While circling above ... See More
Disillusioned I yearn
Am I buried beneath sand and clay?
The caress of cold soil
With limbs crippled to the coil
Locked inside a nightmare womb
Tarnished and grief stricken
Emptiness within a void
Longing for the sun to shine
To discourage the demonoid
Salvation!
Darkness reborn!
We seem to keep fading away
Holding on to that last final sway
A doctrine of self salvation
Darkness reborn on resurrection day?
Stagnating in dead waters
While circling above ... See More
