Emperor - Ye Entrancemperium lyrics

rate me

[Originally released in 1997 on the album "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk".]

[Lyrics: Ihsahn.]

[Music: Samoth & Ihsahn.]

[Arrangements: Samoth & Ihsahn.]

[Opening theme originally composed by Euronymous.]

[5:14]

Drawn towards these lands again.

Seeking death and sacred soil.

I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul,

growing stronger once I enter my empire beyond.

Emperium!

Behold my coming.

The fullmoon rise above me,

enlightening my realm in a silvery glow.

Yet the shadows crawl beneath my storming sky,

guarding treasures from forbidden light.

I still remember,

though ages ago it seems,

the first time I entered the gates,

the revelation of ritual death

by which I became divine.

Sacrifice of the life I had

among the flesh of the light.

And now I enter again.

Even stronger, yet amazed by what I see.

In ecstasy I mock the world.

Suddenly I memorize,

asking what I left behind.

Nothing.

Can I ever comprehend?

Will my longing ever end?

Never.

Drawn towards these lands again.

Seeking death and sacred soil.

I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul

eternally.
