In Flames - Jotun lyrics

rate me

I often dream of huge numb buildings

jet-black sinister architecture

being installed when nobody sees

Their appearance so sudden

that few would take notice

And when I wake up

I imagine being crushed by one

imaginating it's weight it's silence

and the absence of excuses for a havoced life

and the priviledge of a 22-kilometers tombstone

Jotun

A body of black

that carried no reflection

defying it's own room

un-earthly egg of decreation

There would be colonies

mushroom-scattered forever out of content

rising spores from a dying world

to pollute and chase away what's left

Sun-white pulverised desert stone

and serpentine lizard mouths

Pales away the pyramids

rewriting 4500 years of history

raping the statue of liberty

outplays the acropolis

inverting the fjords

invades the ... skyline to

dream its own existence in one single final word

Jotun

Can we identify them

as the flint buried in our reptile skulls

or the time-bomb coded in our dna
