Ihsahn - Monolith lyrics
[Ihsahn - Monolith lyrics]
It was never the icy winds of the heights
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
Whether your approach is that
Of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being
Will remain the same will remain the same
If my soaring presence threatens
To break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
There is a fundamental cleft between
Your world and mine one of divine origin
Were you to witness the nakedness
Of your own soul
It would still appear a tower of Babel
Is it such a crime to go apart and be alone?
Your holy simplicity turns gold into stone
Gold into stone
It was never the icy winds of the heights
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
Whether your approach is that
Of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being
Will remain the same will remain the same
If my soaring presence threatens
To break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
Dread my name
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
Whether your approach is that
Of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being
Will remain the same will remain the same
If my soaring presence threatens
To break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
There is a fundamental cleft between
Your world and mine one of divine origin
Were you to witness the nakedness
Of your own soul
It would still appear a tower of Babel
Is it such a crime to go apart and be alone?
Your holy simplicity turns gold into stone
Gold into stone
It was never the icy winds of the heights
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
Whether your approach is that
Of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being
Will remain the same will remain the same
If my soaring presence threatens
To break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
Dread my name
