Into Death's Trance Lyrics

IN THE DEEPEST MIST,

I AWAKE KNOWING I WILL DIE.

ENSHROUDED BY THE FROZEN WIND

AND ITS PERMANENT BITE,

THE TENUOUS FOREST LIGHTS

FORESHADOW DEATH AND MY END...

THE END OF EVERYTHING ALIVE...

IN THE SECRECY OF MILLENARY OAKS

I CEREMONIALLY PREPARE MYSELF

TO BE THE PRIEST OF MY OWN END.

I SHALL SAY THE LAST WORDS,

AND AMIDST THE SILENT TREES,

I SHALL MERGE

THE WORLD OF THE LIVING

WITH THE WORLD OF THE DEAD...

MERGING THE EARTHLY WITH THE DIVINE,

SANCTIFYING THIS PASSAGE

THAT I SHALL MAKE ALONE.

THE FOREST OPENS ITSELF AS A TEMPLE

THE OAKS ARE MY PILLARS AND THE EARTH IS MY ALTAR.

I KNEEL TO THE NIGHT AND THE STARS AND TIME BECOMES A TRANCE...

I KNEEL TO THE NIGHT

AND TIME BECOMES A TRANCE...
