Ihsahn - Alchemist lyrics

[Ihsahn - Alchemist lyrics]

Again I find myself in this narrow chamber
And my kettle simmers with the same old brew
Now turning sour
There must be more to this than chemistry
As my soul burns with fever

Instinctively I do repeat the simple formula
"Solve et coagula"

He stands to face his fate alone
Who will not be content with stone

Some distant glimmers
Used to lessen my despair
Since then this darkened cell
Has lost it's charm
Now I seek a lightning's glare

"Grips thee
Thou Superman! Where is the soul elated?
Where is the breast that in


It's self a world created?"

He stands to face his fate alone
Who will not be content with stone

"Why grinnest thou at me, thou hollow skull?
Save that thy brain, confused like mine
Once sought bright day and in
The sombre twilight dull
With lust for truth, went wretchedly astray?"
Astray astray
