Lyrics The Insight and the Catharsis - Dimmu Borgir

The Insight and the Catharsis

Passenger on confessional course
Unlock with the key you behold within
Repair the shadow of your mind
And come awake
«Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of being
Rigid father, teach me to comprehend
I’ll commit myself to understand
To be faithful and the instrument
So that the ones with blindfold can see what i have seen
That there is nothing inbetween
For I am the accomplice…»
Aghast and tender, indulged in sin
Embraced by loneliness, legions who grin
I blunder into the realms of slumber
I collide with the obscure
And see the last fraction of light go by
Plundering the sanity from the insane
And providing appearances in black
Carefully swept in decadent spheres
But faces in this world always remain darkened
In circles of dominance, emotional deeps unite
Fiction and transcendence woven together
In the essence of purity lies wisdom
Join the forces, the spiritual black dimensions
What more do you need of proof
Human hands conforming cloven hoofs
For I know the secrets and lies behind all truths
Knowlege is power and the power is mine
It’s all mine
So let the children come to me
And share the limitless ways to infinity
Escape death and disease
And behold youth and vitality
Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of your being
Rigid father, teach me how to comprehend
I’ll commit myself to understand
For i am the accomplice…
